58 cabinet deputy ministers Haradinaj devote over 110 thousand euros a month to budget

Bujar Cakoli is just one of the 58 deputy ministers appointed so far by Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, KTV reports.

The long list of those who have settled in this top state position will continue.

No deputy ministers of trade, justice, Public Administration and Infrastructure have yet been appointed.

Based on online data and some ministries that have returned answers to KTV questions, currently mostly deputy ministers have education.

Muharrem Nitaj, Arber Geci, Bajrush Sezairi, Heset Sahiti's Mustaf Myrtaj and Heset Sahiti are deputy to Shyqiri Bytyqi of the Kosovo Initiative.

According to property statement data, a deputy minister is paid about 1,000 euros in basic salary. 58 deputy ministers and two of their administrative workers cost Kosovo taxpayers more than 110 thousand euros a month.

According to Kosovo's Statistics Agency, about 18 percent of the population live in total poverty with only 1.82 euros a day, while 5.2 percent in extreme poverty at only $1.30 a day.

Many of the deputy ministers have been appointed after the failures to be elected mayors, such as the case of AAK's Fatmir Gashi in Pec, Faruk Nura, in Heset Sahiti's Year of the Initiative in Lipjan.

Haradinaj has about 60 days in the prime minister's position, until his government has been characterised with generally increasing its positions. Besides, Kosovo's government has been added to the ministries of deputy prime ministers with Haradinaj's arrival at its helm.

281 is the total number of employees in Ramush Haradinaj's cabinet government. His press office has confirmed that the appointment of deputy ministers is not complete and new appointments are expected, as stated in this response, in dictatorship where necessary.

With once more residents than Kosovo, the neighbouring state Albania has only 13 minister of one deputy prime minister.
