Guri Rapush Durollari (25 May 1939 – 20 August 2022) was an Albanian‑American political activist and politician best known for re-establishing and leading the Legality Movement Party (Partia Lëvizja e Legalitetit, abrr. PLL), in post Communism Albania, serving from May 1993 until 1998.

Durollari was born into a family from Pogradec, Albania and fled to the United States in 1969 amid the repressive political climate in communist Albania. During his years in America, he was active in the Albanian diaspora community and campaigned against the communist regime in his homeland as well as advocating for the rights of Albanians in the Balkans, including support for Kosovo.[1]
