Tabaku: Soaring living costs are making Albania increasingly unaffordable for locals

TIRANA, May 10/ATA/ Democratic Party MP Jorida Tabaku reacted through a video published in the social media regarding the increase in the cost of living and prices in Albania. And she accused the government of having built an economic system that favors the minority and burdens citizens.

Tabaku said that she has met with citizens, pensioners, middle-class families and businesses and their main concern has been the increase in prices and the difficulty of affording a living.

According to her, the soaring living costs are making Albania increasingly unaffordable for locals.

The DP MP emphasized that during the last 10 years, prices in Albania have increased by 51.1%, while incomes, according to her, have increased minimally, turning Albania into one of the most expensive and unaffordable countries in the region.

She attributed this situation to a rigged economic model dominated by monopolies and a lack of competition.

She accused the ruling majority of favoring a minority connected to power through special laws and fiscal policies, while burdening ordinary citizens and businesses. /m.m/a.f/p.s./
