Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti has shared excerpts from an interview with Radio France Internationale (RFI), describing Kosovo as a “double success story” in the Western Balkans.
In a social media post, Kurti said Kosovo ranks among the top two countries in the region in combating organised crime and corruption, strengthening the rule of law and improving institutional transparency.
He attributed Kosovo’s progress to two key factors: the international intervention and humanitarian assistance that contributed to Kosovo’s liberation 27 years ago, and the country’s simultaneous progress in democracy and economic development.
Kurti also highlighted Kosovo’s continued economic growth, stating that the country has maintained an annual growth rate of more than four per cent of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
“In the Western Balkans, we are either first or second when it comes to fighting organised crime and corruption, the rule of law and institutional transparency, while we have sustained economic growth of over four per cent of GDP,” Kurti wrote.
