MEMORANDUM **

Julian Cami, a native and citizen of Albania, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ denial of his application for asylum and withholding of removal. We deny the petition.

The BIA’s determination that an alien is not eligible for asylum must be upheld if “ ‘supported by reasonable, substantial, and probative evidence on the record considered as a whole.’ ” INS v.
