Minister Nikolovski Labels Allegations about Abuse of EU Funds Chevap Spin

According to Agriculture Minister Ljupco Nikolovski, the allegations about abuse of EU funds are a cheap spin.

“North Macedonia received a recommendation from OLAF only for one case, dated 2015, for which the investigation has been completed. It’s about an amount of 660,000 euros, money from IPA funds, intended to upgrade software at the Agriculture Minister.

The Government received the information from OLAF and it was forwarded to further proceedings at the Basic Public Prosecutor’s Office for Organised Crime,” he said on Thursday.
