LDK MP: Kosovo has become a spoils

Thus states LDK deputy Lumir Abdixhiku in an interview for KosovoPress, stressing that during these months of governance, money was distributed from the budget, without any criteria.

“It's some kind of loosely manageable, careless style of public money. The same style has been distributed and 53m euros to the company Bechtel Enka, and in the same style have been distributed and all of Kosovo's budgetary reserves in the first two months. We've had it in reporting to the finance minister, where we've been confirmed that the money has been distributed without any criteria. They have been distributed carelessly, and that money in the 2018 budget had been spent for less than two months. This shows more about a ruling rubber style, of this government than a principled management of the republic's” budget, he said.

While saying that providing 53m euros to the company “Bechtel Enka” is the biggest scandal that has occurred in the country since the declaration of independence.

“This biggest scandal in Kosovo certainly has been issued since its declaration of independence, but arbitraryly, without any monitoring documents, without any assessment, without any analysis and without any confirmation, 53m euros of Kosovo budget money is provided. For us, such an approach” is unacceptable, he said.

Abdixhiku has spoken about the situation in Kosovo Telecom, which was once quite profitable, while now on the verge of bankruptcy.

According to him, the situation in Telekom has resulted from party interference in the company, putting people's party company at the helm.

There comes another man who is actively locked in the AAK. The PDK transition to AAK made no choice in Kosovo Telecom... what Government has once again given us partisanism of a national asset and once again this is an indication of the government's approach, where they want to get everything they have available, within a short time. He's got his hands everywhere. They're taking all public institutions, misusing public money, massively in every case given to them, and they seem to be full and have no idea to stop in this regard. Therefore, it is necessary for us that this governing style be interrupted as soon as possible”, he said.

According to Abdixhik, the current government is the weakest and most scandalous one the country has ever had.

The partisan activity of many partners within the ruling coalition has ravaged Kosovo. The bid to give his own to every 22-sosh partner as they have in Government has made Kosovo a spoils in which they seek hiss, each political party in the government, and as such has prevented natural breathing, which would have to come to the state at this important political stage. So I don't see any good results in this, I see survival of a scandal, in the other scandal, and above all, I see no regrets. There is no remorse for the action they did, even absurd reasoning about any scandal that has become”, he said.

As for talks in Brussels and their leader, President Hashim Thaci, Abdixhiku says President Thaci is not constitutional authority to lead the dialogue process.

We see the initiative of the unauthorized president to participate in dialogue and as such reject it. We've come up with an alternative, and our alternative is going to early elections. The election of a creditable government and then this Government take over the dialogue process in Brussels with competence. We do not support it, we do not support it in any form, an individual who takes individual adventures more or less without political support in Kosovo. And in this serious phase of Kosovo, the important is political support”, he said.

He has also talked about raising salaries for the government cabinet. Such a thing, according to him, is not fair, considering the serious economic and social situation in the country and that it is a bad example of governance.
