Kurt had promised a new culture of government, which would not have party and family employment.
These promises, according to opposition and civil society, have been overlooked by the government, which they claim is making a new move in the name of the state.
Medjide Demolli-Nimani, director of the non-governmental FOL organisation, said party and family employment has forwarded Kosovo over the years.
We have had not only family members, but there are many militants who are being accommodated in different positions, which all these procedures, unfortunately, are being kept secret”, she said.
According to her, people in key positions in state institutions have also changed with the change of powers, a practice that was largely criticised by the now ruling Vetevendosje Movement.
Unfortunately, the same strategy, to call it that, the same actions are currently taking the Vetevendosje Movement. They have come to power just by criticising these past government actions. A state effort has been promised, but it has not been shown that it will be captured by”, she said.
Demolli-Niman said that if there was a process of actual recruiting and on merit-based even the prime minister's brother if he took a position but passed a literal and merit process for that position, it would be acceptable.
Albana Rexha from Democracy Plus (D+) said any decision that allows someone without competence to be part of an institution violates the institution's own integrity, but also the government that is in power and weakens the development of democracy in the country.
According to her, civil society and journalists should make differences in political appointments, such as those in cabinets and various advisory bodies, with classic employment in civil service and on boards of various companies.
“State background should not be guided in this form, only with the replacement of these boards, so I'm thinking that we as a civil society should be very vocal”, she said.
“If employment is fully based solely on political proximity or family ties, it presents a huge obstacle to the development of the country, especially when all of this, not credit, political proximity and family ties are associated with noncompetent people for the task they have received”, Rexha added.
