The Leader of the Opposition (Albanian: Lideri/Kryetari/Shefi i opozitës) is an unofficial title traditionally held by the leader of the largest party not in government in the Parliament of Albania. The Leader is invariably seen as the alternative Prime Minister of Albania to the present incumbent, and heads a rival alternative government known as the Shadow Cabinet.
