American expert on the 2 million scandal: Kosovars losing confidence in government

Regarding the theft scandal of two million euros from the Kosovo Treasury, American expert Alon Ben Meir has also reacted.

The latter, commenting on the case in question, has said via a Facebook post that Kosovo has failed to fight corruption and build a legal system capable of eliminating these negative phenomena.

According to him, what is happening now is the worst thing because, as Ben Meir puts it, Kosovars are losing confidence in their government.

Kosovo has consistently failed to fight corruption and build a strong judicial system even now, twenty years after the end of the war and twelve years after Kosovo declared independence. People are losing faith in their government, which is the worst thing that can happen to a new nation struggling to give its youth in particular a hope for a better future”, he has said.
