Economy experts: Kosovo’s difficult social situation affects citizens’ patience
Economy experts in Kosovo have evaluated that the conclusions of UNDP’s recent economic report do not present any surprises. Additionally, they believe that these long term problems can endanger the stability of the country, because citizens are losing their patience with Kosovo’s institutions. Additionally, no short- or long-term solutions appear to have been identified. The Director of the American Chamber of Commerce, Mimoza Lila-Kusari has said that general public awareness of these problems also is not new, and the high levels of poverty and unemployment in Kosovo largely influence people’s opinions and patience. Berim Ramosaj, a Professor at the University of Pristina has said that economic and social problems are among the most serious issues that Kosovo faces. He added that these problems are of a long-term character, and cannot be solved on by one government, but that the current government have not deployed any real efforts to address these serious issues.
