Socialist MP Erion Braçe called for a ban on price abuse, highlighting abuses with imported products.
He highlighted that for tomatoes, the "hit product", prices for citizens have been 5-6 times higher than import and customs clearance prices.
"We have been under import aggression and the prices on the market have been justified by this fact. I have addressed the Customs Directorate, especially for the product that became a hit, tomatoes. There are two items, tomatoes and tomato paste, coming from Greece, Italy, Serbia and Turkey, this has been our key import.
There are somewhere around 2500 tons in the January-March period, but the prices that were imported and cleared are surprising. The numbers are 5-6 times cheaper than the citizens have bought the tomato product on the market. This is a scandalous abuse in a market where there is no fiscal invoice.
"Agricultural production must be supported now, otherwise in July-September we will continue to import! The abuse of vegetable and fruit prices must stop! Even in terms of imports, it is scandalous and unfortunately domestic production follows everyone in a row," said Braçe.
