The supplementary word for the amendment of the 2026 Budget is currently before the delegates in the Assembly. During her report, Minister of Finance Gordana Dimitrievska Kochoska stated that the document reflects a timely and responsible financial agreement for the state, particularly given the current global economic environment. The Minister noted specific adjustments within the budget allocations.
She pointed out that funding for more categories of expenditures has seen reductions, and also, funding designated for local projects has been scaled back. Financially, the plan projects a total revenue of 379.5 billion dinars against planned expenditures of 425.8 billion dinars. This results in a projected deficit set at 4.1% of GDP.
According to the Minister, this deficit calculation is specifically structured to exclude financing allocated for development initiatives. Furthermore, the standard budget rates have been adjusted, with a reduction amounting to 46.3 billion dinars, which the Minister clarified is also calculated to exclude financing intended for development purposes.
