I'm always: Three options lost by Kurti Government in economy, according to Dardan Sejdiu

Albin Kurti on February 14, 2021, on the date that also coincides with the day of lovers had won the historic victory, the victory of the referendum as he calls it, after many years of activism and opposition.

His campaign was characterised in radical changes to the system in Kosovo. He set several priorities, obviously among them economic development.

But what happened in the country's economy from the pre-February 14 vows until now?

Economically aware, but also Kurti's former associate, Dardan Sejdiu for Periscope, has given a summary analysis of the government's actions and inactions regarding economic development.

Since Prime Minister Kurti, but his subordinates, each day mention that there has been economic growth of the last 10 per cent in our country, Sejdiu says such figures result largely from the remittances of fellow countrymen but not as the Government's due.

The first year was an analysis of the situation, not concrete action. Economic growth in the country has been largely driven by remittances from our countrymen, without whom growth would be minority. And you can't say that the government has taken any action to make any move on its side, he said.

Sejdiu further mentions the services in this area, but always stressing that it was a diaspora economy.

The remaining unstopped devices. Capital investments have had very little, which has also affected development. The year 2021, as far as the economy is concerned, is a year of diaspora, which should be kept as driving development and maintenance of a more lively economy. Otherwise, it would be an extremely disappointing year if it were not for diaspora vehicles. Because the government has been both poor and conservative in spending budget tools, Sejdiu said.

Since in the first year of the mandate we cannot talk about failures, Sejdiu numbers three lost opportunities of power Kurti in the economy.

I think the first is government conservative Kurti's spending assets on capital investment categories, where 400m euros are left without spending. That's a lot of money. The second chance for a long-term spring-time reaction last year in terms of purchasing electricity so that we can make sure that growth is softer and better managed and that citizens' pocket is not hit too much. Third, don't launch any law -- no work associated with social schemes -- to narrow down this huge mess we have with social schemes where approximately 600m euros is spent on pension, disability, social schemes and Kosovo continues to be the only country without a social security law.

A year isn't much and it's not even a little. Over three, we can talk about lost opportunities, but therefore the government's inadequacy with better management of economy and society has added Sejdiu to Periscope.

The unprecedented economic development mentioned by Prime Minister Kurti was not translated into a rise in welfare for the common people. Although this year [the second with the pandemic] was more productive in business activity, price surges, energy crises and other troubles caused serious financial anxiety. / P ERISCOPI/
