For two days, the same dezinform is distributed, from the same source, with different portals. Former Secretary of the Ministry of Integration Demush Shasha again reactivates the first dezinformation two days, as if Kosovo lost funds from the EU. Before yesterday, we published the clarification. For direct information of the opinion, we ask that you release him as a bull to today's disinformation, launched by Kosovapress, titled: In addition to 43m euros, Kosovo risks losing another 11m euros from the European Union”, the MIE communiqué says.
The Ministry of Integrations further adds that, “Kosovo has not lost a cent of European Union funds”.
Minister of European Integration, Gift Hoxha, reported to the permanent parliamentary Commission for European Integration, among other things, for increasing EU funds for Kosovo. So, not one cent has been lost by these funds, so it has rejected speculation about loss of funds.
With this clarification, we want to announce the opinion that Kosovo has not lost a single cent of EU funds dedicated to the Republic of Kosovo, on the contrary, EU funds have grown and have not been reduced.
“with IPA 2016, Part 2 has been signed the Boarding Support Agreement for Public Administration Reform, worth 25m euros, while with IPA 2017, Part 2 has been signed the agreement on Public Finance Management Management, worth 25m Euro”, said in the communique.
Likewise, Minister Hoxha briefed the parliamentary Commission that EU funds for Kosovo have only increased: IPA 2017 has earmarked 73m euros, IPA 2018 has earmarked 90.5m euros, and IPA 2019 over 200m euros.
In addition to IPA funds, Kosovo receives funds even from the Western Balkan Investment Frame (WBIF), Minister Hoxha noted, in this single round of applications, so round 21 applications in the framework W BIF: The value of infrastructure projects exceeds 250m euros, only the construction of sewage treatment plants, drinking water plants and water collectors in Kosovo's large and small centres exceed 400m euros.
