But, according to Gerjaliu, the Kosovo diaspora deserves a different treatment, not as he said, that its contribution is measured solely with the financial box, rather than how much money it sends to Kosovo.
The “is a huge injustice when it is said that the diaspora sent only 1 billion and 222m euros in 2022. It must be understood that there is a direct and indirect form of sending money. We only talk here about bank transactions or the means sent through creditable banking institutions”.
But our diaspora mostly spends when it stays in Kosovo. The diaspora contribution within a year in Kosovo is bigger than Kosovo budget itself”, Gerjaliu said in “Info Magazine” in Klan Kosova.
On the other hand, he said that states that from the most part come money from the diaspora are in economic recession, and that could adversely affect it.
“Viti 2023 has its challenges. He's got the swings in the geostragic aspect. States where mostly come money from the diaspora, three are in economic recession thanks to inflation and negative trends in the economy, and in this direction institutions should do more”, he said.
