Bajrami-Lekat: Set a Standard for Building Highways

As for the infrastructure, Lekaj said Kosovo is the leader in the region.

While MP Hykmete Bajrami had questions about the 53m-euro fee for delays by the economic operator. She said a standard for highway construction should be set.

Why hasn't the company been punished when it's late? I know, you're the minister of infrastructure, but we need a reason for building highways and access to cities when there's only a few miles away from”, she said.

Minister Lekaj said it is scheduled to complete all payments on June 1st, 2019.

We've given a clarification. When we're paying 53 million, when the project is completed I can say: 10 percent of the contract has not been conducted”, he said.

And here Bajrami asked why 53m euros should have been allocated to BectelEEnka, when even this company could wait.

MP Libun Aliu said how Besiana could be linked to Merdare, when Serbia does not connect Nis with Merdare.

This is in Serbia's interest. When we're building the Pristina road Besiana by four lanes. I'm not understanding why I built the Merdare highway when we have the tax on Serbia. We're seeing we're in front of the collapse as a state, we're going to collapse”, he said.

Deputy Veton Berisha, on the other hand, requested clarification of the Zahaq Pej Street.
