Haradinaj: We've got no tax cry, local producers don't raise prices

In this case, executive director of the Club of Producers, Astrit Panja, has said they have organised this convention to strengthen the production sector in Kosovo.

“We have begun to organise this convention as we believe production is Kosovo's most strategic economic investment. We're for free trade. So even today we have invited fellow workers from Albania and Macedonia to talk to them. But, the club will also respect reciprocity measures against some states, as is the tax on Serbia and Bosnia. Kosovar producers have had problems sending products to these countries”, he said.

He said Kosovo producers do not belong to any political party, they belong to Kosovo.

Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, who has said he is aware that production is a challenge and that producers have faced challenges, also participated in the event.

We know that production is a challenge, and in one way or another, producers have been challenged from the beginning. Kosovo already has more self-confidence in production and products are valuable. As a government, we immediately began with certain tasks being carried out. The removal in the first class customs, the provision of land for municipalities to return to economic areas”, he said.

Haradinaj has also talked about the tax imposed on products of Serbia and those from Bosnia.

The end “is the tax action on Bosnian and Serbian products, the proposal has come from the Ministry of Trade and Industry, and has been voted in Government, and only with Government decision has left. It is the interest of the 2 million citizens living in this country, you know how badly Kosovo and Kosovo products have been treated, what obstacles they have had. It is surprising that those who are criticising Kosovo for not knowing these problems. We know that production is a challenge, but the challenge is not something, there are no stories that are impressed and that do not stem from a painful situation. Serving taxes that we are awake is Kosovo's decision, Kosovo has taken it, but at the moment we have had no choice. This decision could last as long as Serbia recognises Kosovo and implement all other agreements”, Haradinaj said.

He has had a prayer for Kosovo producers.

Please use it, but don't misuse it, don't raise prices. It's real time to give local products priority. Serbia has misused Kosovo Serbs, it is good to take care of them and supply them with all possible products. This measure is not taken for Kosovo Serbs”, he said.

Trade and Industry Minister Andrew Shala has said that how MTI will be alongside local producers, which has also asked them to increase the quality of their products. /Me

The “Patrios is the one who opens new jobs, buys local products, and thereby influences the empowering of the state of Kosovo. Compared to the past years, Kosovo is in a more favourable position than years ago. MTI is focused on being alongside local products. I demand that you increase the quality of your products, and I appeal that the Kosovo product be used. Ours is to create conditions and yours is to increase quality”, he said. /Kosovo pres/
