Kosovo unionists say they will protest on May 1st to seek workers' rights. According to the chairman of the Union of Independent Trade Unions of Kosovo (BSPK), Avni Aydini, the unemployment rate remains high and workers' conditions remain difficult. The problem, according to him, remains the private sector, where the labour law is not respected.
In an interview with Aydin, Radio Free Europe initially asked him why Kosovo has difficulty recovering its economy and why does the country still have such high unemployment?
In our opinion, the unemployment rate is quite high. There was no economic development. Economic development I think is building factories to produce something or, for example, invest in the agriculture sector, and there's our local goods and not to allow the introduction of other products that are not local, completely uncontrolled, as we had the meat case and it was a total scandal, not of the people, but of the Government, because it is not alert... There's the biggest problem”, Aydin says.
He also says nepotism is destroying the employment sector in Kosovo.
<x) Although there are many red dots, new quartdros, yet they are in the shade, so unemployment in us is over 40 percent I can say”, he says.
