For almost a year and a half, Kosovo continues to remain sanctioned by the imposition of European Union measures, which for the opposition is considered as a failure of the Kurti Government in lobbying for their removal. They reiterate that around 300 million euros are currently blocked by EU measures. Although, even members of the ruling party ask the EU to lift the measures. Regarding this issue, KosovaPress has also sent questions to the Government of Kosovo, but they have not returned an answer until the publication of this topic.
The deputy from the Democratic Party of Kosovo, Ferat Shala, while criticizing the Kurti Government for bad governance, called on the government to create opportunities for lobbying and clarification that Kosovo does not need these measures.
Meanwhile, he adds that the country has lost hundreds of millions of euros in investments as a result of the EU's measures.
Even the deputy of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK), Pal Lekaj, while blaming the current government for the measures, says that there are many projects that have stalled, for which the citizens are also being harmed.
On the other hand, they expect from the government that with full functionality and with the start of work and decision-making in the European Commission, not only Kosovo's request for the removal of the measures but also Kosovo's membership for the status of a candidate country for the EU will be seriously examined.
The head of the parliamentary group of Vetëvendosje Mimoza Kusari-Lila tells KosovaPress that the "meaning" of keeping the measures in force has already been lost.
We remind you that the European Commission imposed punitive measures against Kosovo a year ago due to the escalation of the security situation in the north of the country.
