Bajrami: The government “Kurti 2” will misuse the economic revival package, buy votes during the election campaign.

The resurgent of a new package that enables the country's economic revival is seen as the possibility of misuse of the budget by the Government “Kurti 2”, aimed at buying votes on the eve of the 2021 local elections.

So at least he is considering former Finance Minister Hykmete Bajrami, who has raised these concerns.

What we fear, and of course it will happen, I'm saying it here in your studio, and it's responsible for this statement. I'm afraid these are planning all these millions, to spend them during the local election campaign,” she said.

It was Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti the day before he announced that the budget review had enabled his government to create a new package that enables the country's economic revival, but does not indicate when its implementation will begin.

This, according to Bajram, gives the government “Kurti 2” the opportunity to implement the electoral campaign in time.

What I'm saying is that the package for economic revival is starting to be implemented at the time of the election campaign. To distribute subsidies and become the additions of children, to pay the lehotes, to have an increase perhaps of pensions and all others. That is, by doing such things in time of campaigning, in fact, what you're doing is misuse the state budget to buy votes.” Bajrami said at ATV.

We remember that three weeks ago, the Kosovo government allocated 420m euros for economic revival, in which diaspora bonds are included.

Finance, Labour and Transfers Minister Hekuran Murati had indicated that the criteria, deadlines and operating plans for the package of economic revivals would be followed according to separate procedures and decisions on the part of the ministry he runs.
