(NewsNibs) - Tonći Janović, aligned with the 'Evropa sad' political movement, has publicly accused Civic Movement URA of attempting to invalidate the 2024 budgetary process. Janović suggested that the tactics employed by URA were a deliberate ploy to cause delays in the adoption of the budget, potentially impacting governance and projects slated for the upcoming year.
URA Counters Allegations
Contradicting Janović's accusations, Mileta Radovanić, the General Secretary of URA, affirmed that the budget for 2024 has indeed been adopted. This statement was aimed at dispelling any uncertainty over the fiscal planning for the year ahead, emphasizing that the budget had passed through the necessary legislative processes.
In a further rebuttal, Radovanić highlighted that Tonći Janović had participated in the vote and had cast his ballot in favor of the 2024 budget. This point was leveraged to question Janović’s accusations and underscore the support that the budget received across the political spectrum.
"Evropa sad 2" Program Criticisms
The discourse surrounding the "Evropa sad 2" program has given rise to criticism with the initiative being metaphorically described as a "mythical creature", implying that while it is frequently talked about, its actual presence and effects remain to be seen. This statement reflects skepticism regarding the program's tangible impact and visibility within the political landscape.
The debate between 'Evropa sad' and URA signifies ongoing tensions regarding fiscal policies. The defense by URA’s Radovanić underlines a commitment to transparency and legislative efficiency, suggesting that despite political fray, the budget for 2024 stands firm. The "Evropa sad 2" program's efficacy, nevertheless, continues to be a subject of political rhetoric and scrutiny.
