"At the beginning of this speech for the 2025 draft budget, I want to convey to all the pensioners of Albania the good news that in the future the government will release a fund of nearly 100 million euros for their year-end bonus. It will be divided into two levels, all pensioners who have a pension up to 20 thousand lek, 200 euros, will receive 3 times the bonus that was until yesterday through a new bonus of 150 euros. While pensioners who have a pension greater than 20,000 Lek will receive double the bonus of previous years through a bonus of 100 euros. This difference between the first and the second is not made to give less to those who have a higher pension, but to give more to those who have a lower pension", said Rama...
