The steady increase in the number of beneficiaries from social transfer schemes, especially in the number of former Kosovo Liberation Army war veterans, is burdening the state budget. And the number of veterans is only increasing by day. Even at the beginning of this year, the number that benefits the veteran's pension has increased.
According to the Kosovo Statistics Agency, out of 38 thousand and 232 veterans were taking pensions in January last year, only 38 thousand and 101 beneficiaries remained in December 2019.
But this number has increased again and in the first three months of 2020 (January, February, March) there are 38 thousand and 205 veterans who benefit from pension schemes.
That is, from December of last year until March of this year, 104 people have been added to the pension scheme for KLA veterans.
Representatives of the Association of Veterans in the Kosovo Liberation Army say they do not know how the number of veterans has now grown.
We're surprised at this number, where this number is increased and flowing we don't know. Whatever it is for us, it's unacceptable to have the number of veterans again -- ” -- said in a premonition for Fact Plus of O. VLKLA's, Hysni Gucati.
Although I don't know how the number of veterans has grown, Gucati has blamed Government Kurt for the recent increase.
He even says it is shameful and unacceptable that with governments changing and political interests, the number of veterans is increasing.
How long will this go? It's a shame to the Government that every time it changes for its own political interests, it blows up the number of veterans. This is unacceptable to us. Although we don't know where this number is coming from, this flow is exactly from government officials how many times governments change and they increase the number of veterans. That number increased at the time of Kurti Government. I'm not accusing Kurt, but this is prime minister and they have to take responsibility and they have to point out where this number<x1 was raised, Gucati said.
