The Mayor of the Municipality of Pristina, Perparim Rama, has publicly responded to accusations made by the acting Minister of Finance, Hekuran Murati. The dispute centers on the organization of public transportation within the capital city, where Murati alleged that the municipality was in violation of the Law on Public-Private Partnerships. In his statements, the acting Minister asserted that the Municipality of Pristina had failed to adhere to the necessary preliminary procedures stipulated by the PPP Law.
Consequently, Murati contended that any agreements or contracts related to public transport organization were contrary to established law, demanding that relevant governmental bodies intervene to address the situation. In response to these claims, Mayor Rama issued a brief reaction via social media, directly addressing Murati’s criticisms. Rama characterized the minister’s actions by referring to him as a “blocker.” The mayor posted a statement asserting, “The blocker has been notified!
He doesn’t want the work. So he blocks even at night.”
The exchange highlights a significant disagreement over the legal framework governing urban infrastructure development in Pristina. While Murati emphasized procedural compliance and legal adherence, Rama’s rebuttal adopted a more confrontational tone, signaling a continuation of the policy dispute between the municipal leadership and the Ministry of Finance regarding the city’s public transit arrangements.
