16 September 2024 | SPEECH
RCC presented the findings of Balkan Barometer 2024 on 16 Septermber 2024 in Tirana.
Secretary General Majlinda Bregu showcased the most prevalent data saying, among other things: “Balkan Barometer reveals that hiking prices and inflation are the biggest worry this year for the people of Western Balkans, who for the past decade worried most about either economic situation or unemployment. This change doesn’t come as a surprise, given that inflation in the Western Balkans is nearly double that of the EU (8.1% to 3.4% respectively), while food prices are almost the same as in the EU. Yet, our GDP is just half of that of the EU."
