A detail from the life of pensioners in Serbia and Slovenia

Almost at the same time when President Vučić announced that by the end of the year pensions be increased "I hope it will be 7, 8 or 9 percent, but it will certainly be an increase", as he said, the news arrived that pensioners in Slovenia will receive an annual allowance by September 30 at the latest.

The amount of that supplement depends on the amount of the pension, so, for example, those with the lowest income, which is 680 euros, will receive 480 euros of annual supplement, and those who receive more than 1160 euros, will receive 155 euros.

In Serbia, the average pension for April was 50.688 dinars.

Announcing that he hopes for an increase in pensions, and in order to give them a clearer idea of ​​the amount involved, he said that "pensions will not grow by one or two percent. Regardless of all the harmful consequences. If it were not for these consequences, they would grow by double digits."

He did not specify which and for whom the harmful consequences were in question, but it seemed as if he was taking from someone else to give to pensioners. Because he is good and they are miserable and miserable. It also seemed as if they were a burden, as if the state would be easier without them. It's as if the pension is alms that he gives them. Although they worked for the state all their lives. He also said "I am very happy for the pensioner".

No one has announced to Slovenian pensioners that they will receive an annual allowance. There is no need, because it is written in their Law on the execution of the budget of the Republic of Slovenia. And they don't depend on someone's election campaign.
