The synchronized urging of the executive power sent to the MPs to adopt the budget as soon as possible are just a confirmation of the information CdM obtained a few days ago that the state budget is almost empty. The Government says that if the budget is not adopted soon, the country is in danger of collapse. The budget projected by the Government of Zdravko Krivokapić at €2.5bn was supposed to officially start to be applied on 1 June, but that did not happen because it was not adopted. The debate on the proposed budget ended on 20 May, but it did not get the green light from MPs because DF requested new consultations with PM Krivokapić on several issues, including the census and the provision of money for compensations to mothers. The DF previously announced that it would not vote for the proposed budget until Parliament adopts the prosecutorial laws, which have been adopted in the meantime. The MPs submitted as many as 51 amendments to the proposed budget, on which the parliamentary committees should first decide, and only then Parliament. It is difficult to predict when and whether the budget will be adopted.
Minister of Finance and Social Welfare Milojko Spajić claims that the proposed budget is the best in history because the maximum was achieved in relation to, as he says, the mischief that awaited the government.
