DLDK exclusive Ermal Sadiku has said that in 2025, Kosovo’s trade deficit reached 50.6% gross domestic product ( GDP).

According to him, this deficit is the highest in the Western Balkans and higher than in any EU state.

By comparison: Albania 22%, Northern Macedonia 19.8%, Bosnia 19,7% and Serbia 7.3%. Behind these figures is our dependence on import and lack of local production.

He has said such a situation should be an alarm for the Government of Kosovo.

Kosovo needs policies that support producers, investments and exports. /I did. tv
