KMDLNJ: Never has the number of those leaving Kosovo been greater

The Council for Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms (KMDLNJ), through a response, has estimated that the number of citizens who are releasing Kosovo has never been greater than it is now.

According to them now, citizens who have a good economic situation are leaving Kosovo. The number of citizens who have released Kosovo as if it is happening now has never been greater against all these obstacles. Earlier the reason for Kosovo's departure was the fraught economic situation, while now Kosovo is leaving even those with good material condition”, it is said in their response.

They have estimated that after January 1st of 2024, when visa liberalisation for Kosovo will take effect, there will be a shortage of workers in the country.

Kosovo's “in Kosovo, after 1 January 2024 there will be a great shortage of workers whose country is being occupied by workers imported from Asian or African states but who exploit Kosovo only as an opportunity to flee to European states”, says in response, where it adds that their country “is occupied by workers imported from Asian or African states but that Kosovo uses only as an opportunity to flee to the European states”

According to the KMDLNJ, the economic situation in Kosovo has not improved at all, compared to increasing inflation, which they think is above 4.2%.

“can be said to have deteriorated for the fact that Kosovo is the only country in the region where pensions have suffered no change. In the countries of the region, within 36 months we have increased pensions at least 6-8 times, while within this deadline the state has twice exiled, giving it an additional 100 euros”, it says in their response.

According to them, the state does not treat the Association of Pensioners of Kosovo as a social partner and is ignoring any demands the association made.

The KMDLNJ's response says that the beneficiaries of social schemes are in no better condition at all, even covering basic needs.

There are no categories in Kosovo today, except for politicians and their supporters who provide income with which they can meet personal and family needs. You cannot find places in the region where there has been no movement or state intervention to face this fraught economic situation as if it was happening in Kosovo”, KMDLNJ's response said.

According to them at this time, a lack of workers “is actually feeling a qualified profile that has gone to work in Western states”.

These countries at the time they are facing a shortage of workers have created extenuating circumstances for these profiles, creating a shortage of workers in states by recruiting workers.
