French ambassador provide any additional explanation on requests for a transparent<br />

process. Why were the bids not open and why Kosovar opinion is being kept in ignorance<br />

to this day on conditions under which the PIA was given to concession? Both<br />

ambassadors provided their guarantees, but they failed to respond to our demand for<br />

transparency and why did they get involved in a process which should have been led<br />

from head to toes by the Government <strong>of</strong> Kosova.<br />

It has been said that € 100 million are to be invested, but in reality, according to the<br />

information leaked from this process, we are talking about a workload that does not<br />

exceed €45 million. <strong>The</strong>re were attempts to deceive the public with claims that the Kosova<br />

budget would benefit between 25 - 45% <strong>of</strong> gross income from this company. <strong>The</strong><br />

changes <strong>of</strong> percentage for almost double <strong>of</strong> its value were never explained. Neither the<br />

public was aware <strong>of</strong> how to you determine what consist <strong>of</strong> 25 and 45%. How will the<br />

income <strong>of</strong> this company monitored when such a thing was impossible also when these<br />

companies were public.<br />

conclusion<br />

Kosovo’s wealth is being relinquished under the government’ tutelage by the so-called<br />

“technical advisors,” who in reality draft policies, strategy, and decisions for government.<br />

How is it possible for Government <strong>of</strong> Kosova to operate as a tool <strong>of</strong> “international<br />

advisors” who use the government to also violate the will <strong>of</strong> Parliament <strong>of</strong> Kosova? How<br />

can one treat legitimate processing <strong>of</strong> documents with crucial importance for Kosova’s<br />

economy, while there are serious accusations passing through the Parliament through<br />

pressure and manipulation <strong>of</strong> votes? Can one call the process legitimate and with integrity<br />

when led by ministers who receive decisions on dealing with corruption allegations.<br />

Could the increased suspicions on minister’s corruption involved in privatization<br />

<strong>of</strong> public companies be in fact a blackmailing against those who give up <strong>of</strong> national<br />

treasure? All these questions and conclusions will cherish a strong support for as long<br />

as the process does not become transparent.
