From June 7th to June 13th, there are 137 flights with 19 thousand and 750 travelers arriving and 18 thousand and 168 travelers in the past. While between June 14th and 20th, 150 flights have been realised on 21 thousand and 912 travelers in arrival, and 17 thousand and 517 travelers in the past”, Gara told Telegrafi.
Also, the exile continues to be one of the main sources of financing of family spending in Kosovo. Since declaring independence, their remittances have continued to mark growth. World Bank data shows that 12.6 billion euros have been submitted within this period.
The greatest value of remittances is that of 2020, where despite the COVID-19 mrgata has sent 1.18 billion euros.
In contrast, from the preliminary results of the diaspora census, the number of Kosovo citizens living in different countries of Europe and the world who have responded to the census is about 350,000.
