"More than 41,000 businesses will benefit", Këlliçi

Belind Kelliçi has presented his program for supporting small and medium businesses through the reduction of taxes and fees.

The candidate of the "Together We Win" coalition had a meeting with representatives of businesses and promised that if he is elected Mayor, then he will remove the temporary tax for educational infrastructure.

Kelliçi stated that this tax has taken 42 million euros from the citizens since 2016, where a significant part has ended up in the pockets of the rulers.

Another of his promises was a 50% reduction in the fee for cleaning and greening.

"We have never seen a meeting of the municipal council, no discussion on the problems of citizens or businesses. Businesses have faced a 10-fold increase in taxes. The history of these 10 years has been a history of persecution for 54 thousand businesses in the capital."

"This time will end because I declare that small and medium business will be my priority as the next mayor. Together we will reduce taxes and local fees, not only that our credo as a political force is for low taxes. You will find in me a very trusted ally." said Kelliçi.

Tirana Municipality has a budget of nearly 240 million euros."
