LDK spokesperson Sibel Halimi said that Prime Minister Albin Kurti was walking around Europe, while his government had no a Health Minister for 45 days and warned that the existence of public health was at risk.

"But this is not the first time that the position has been vacant. Kurti's government was without a Health Minister for 45 days in the fall of last year. Therefore, Kurti's government has been without a minister for the most problematic department that directly affects the citizens of the country for 90 days. The Prime Minister travels up and down across Europe, and this year 191 doctors fled from Kosovo," Halimi stated on Facebook.

As she said, there is no salary increase for the remaining doctors in Kosovo, which means that the Kosovo government is not doing anything to keep them in Kosovo, and the salary law is not on the horizon.

"Not only are the minister and doctors missing, but also essential medicines. Capital investments for the construction of new health institutions are also missing; there is no equipment - not even for their maintenance. Not to mention health insurance and the health information system. Nowhere, nothing, not even a step! And all these shortages are not the result of a lack of budget," Halimi says.

According to her, more than 700 million euros from taxes are sleeping in Kosovo's coffers and are decreasing due to inflation.
