Why did Albin Kurti not keep his promise of additions of 50, 100 and 150 dollars a month to low-income families?

Why did Albin Kurti not keep his promise of additions of 50, 100 and 150 dollars a month to low-income families?

From 50 per child if the family has an annual income of less than $70,000, out of 100 per child if the family has an annual income of less than 6 thousand euros, and from 150 per child if the family has an annual income of less than 5,000 euros. That is what Albin Kurti had promised, [...]

From 50 per child if the family has an annual income of less than $70,000, out of 100 per child if the family has an annual income of less than 6 thousand euros, and from 150 per child if the family has an annual income of less than 5,000 euros. So he had promised Albin Kurti four years ago, but that promise is left only on paper, but it is not fully realized.

Children who had to receive 50, 100 or 150 euros per month, depending on his family's annual income, have received only 20 euros a month.

The Kosovo government, in July 2024, had published the new addition scheme for children.

Of this additional amount, one child would be paid 20 euros a month, two children within one family would be paid by the Government by 40 euros a month, three children would be paid 90 euros a month, four children of a family would be paid 120 euros a month, and five children within one family would be paid 150 euros a month or 30 euros per family, which means five children would be paid by the equivalent of 150 euros a month, the same one that would be paid only if his family had an annual income of less than 5 thousand euros, but the promise given to the prime minister when he was given 4 thousand euros.

And not to fulfill that promise, from the Kosovo opposition, is seen as failure and future fraud, as other promises not made by the Kurti Government.

Former Minister Skender Recica after Kurti failed in his promise to the children: Time to select leaders who act not only promises

Former Labour and Social Management Minister Skender Recica has voiced criticism in the direction of Prime Minister Albin Kurti for failing to realise the promise of child support, based on annual revenues.

He describes this failure as unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the Government's credibility and dedication to citizens' vital needs.

It is unacceptable that Prime Minister Kurti's promise of child support, based on annual revenues, be neglected and not realised within this four-year government mandate. This failure raises serious questions about the government's credibility and dedication in fleeing to citizens' vital needs, he says.

Recica stressed that instead of concrete actions for the realization of this promise, citizens have seen only excuses and priorities on issues that do not reflect the urgency of social problems.

Instead of taking concrete steps to fulfill this promise, we have seen only excuses and priorities on issues that do not reflect the true urgency of social problems He says.

He added that this failure should serve as a moment of reflection for citizens, inviting them to think well on the eve of the February 9th elections.

This failure should serve as a moment of reflection for any citizen who will come out to vote on February 9th, Recica added.

Former Prime Minister Recica questions whether such a government should be trusted.

“The query is simple: Will we continue to believe a leadership that does not meet its commitments, especially those that directly affect the most economically vulnerable families?

 

Rashit Qalaj: Kurti's promises for additions to children are fraud, outgoing government has failed

PDK MP Rashit Qalaj has spoken of the governance of Prime Minister Albin Kurti, who has named him the outgoing Government, over promises of additions to children and country management during his mandate.

According to Qalajt, Kurti's government has failed to realise promises and has not accomplished even basic work for the country's development.

We've been living a lot worse. Not only have promises not been realised, but it has not done basic tasks to guide the country and develop it,”a Qalaj, adding that Kurti's government has focused only on blaming opposition, media, prosecution and other institutions.

He stressed that the main blame for this situation is Albin Kurti himself and named his departure from the prime minister's post as a major <x0 emergency> ” for the good of Kosovo.

“Kurti's government is powerless to lead the country, and its departure is too urgent to get the country out of this chaos,” concluded, Qalaj.

 

Bajrush Ymer: Kurt's promises were populist and not realized, citizenThey will punish them on February 9th.

LDK deputy candidate Bajrush Ymeri for FrontOnline has criticised the promises of Vetevendosje Movement and Prime Minister Albin Kurti regarding additions to children, naming them as populist promises that have not been realised.

He said Kurt four years ago had given even bigger promises to citizens who, according to him, have not been fulfilled.

The code before four years has given even bigger promises than the ones it is now giving. We have seen them as popular promises, and unfortunately a large proportion of citizens were entrusted to them, since they may have been in a situation they should believe,” said Ymer.

He stressed that most of Kurt's promises have not been realized, and now, according to him, the VV is accusing the LDK of mentioning these unfulfilled promises.

Most of the promises have not even come true now are accusing us that those promises are being mentioned and that you are not even embarrassed and feel a little guilty in front of these citizens who have not fulfilled those promises that they have been their program. They accuse us of mentioning promises they have not kept, nor are they ashamed. They feel no responsibility for citizens who believed in these promises,” Ymer added.

The LDK candidate also cited the lack of capital projects and described as disappointing the fact that the budget has not brought tangible changes to citizens.

“They said that the SQ budget was never higher and that no major capital project appeared to me, and these promises for families and children would have to be a huge disappointment for citizens and we must punish him on February 9th.

 

Artan Nimani: Kurt's promises for additions to children are speculation and fraud, he's trying to buy votes even in this election.

The candidate for MP from the ruling Coalition for Kosovo, Artan Nimani, has spoken of the promises of Prime Minister Albin Kurti, of additions to children, calling them speculations for the benefit of the vote.

Kurt's promises four years ago are seen as pure speculation in order to benefit from citizens' votes. Despite major promises, the state of the economy of our families and the country has deteriorated,” said Nimani.

He also considered it an attempt to impress citizens with the potential increase in additions for children, saying 10-20 euros' support will have no real impact.

Kurti's <x0). Highlight Niman.

Nimani concluded that, in this election, Kurti is again trying to buy votes with promises that cannot be realised, calling this a fraud for citizens.

Even in this election, he is trying to buy votes, Nimani said.

Arton Mujarrier: Kurti's failure to supplement children is an indicator of government inability

Economic knowledge, Arton Muharzier, has sharply criticised Albin Kurti's rule over failing to establish the promise of financial assistance to children and low-income families, calling it a scandalous failure that shows the government's inability to lead responsible and keep promises to citizens.

This is a scandalous failure and clear indication of the government's total inability to lead responsible and keep promises to citizens. The promise of financial assistance for children of low-income families was a basic and vital measure, but it was not realised due to the lack of a clear plan, irresponsability and inability to manage the country's” economy, Mujarri said.

He said financial assistance for children was a basic and vital measure, but failure to realise it is due to lack of clear plan and irresponsability.

This government has shown that it does not understand citizens' priorities and does not even have the least capacity to do sustainable financial tests. The promises were electoral propaganda to deceive citizens, with no real basis for implementation. When such an integral promise fails, what can we expect from the government for the biggest economic and social challenges it has.

He called it the political failure of Kurti Government

This is not only a political failure, but also a serious blow to families who had hoped for this promise,” concluded Mujarrier.
