Political and national consensus on the negotiation process with the EU. That is the initiative presented on Monday by Deputy PM for European Affairs Bujar Osmani. He believes that all political stakeholders, not just the Government and President Stevo Pendarovski, should be involved in it. According to the Deputy PM, it’s necessary for parliament’s committees, including the European Affairs one to be functional, because the first inter-governmental conference is expected to be held in autumn, as well as because a negotiating structure should be formed. Pendarovski’s Cabinet said a leaders’ meeting about the issue could be organised. Osmani is reserved when it comes to the election date issue. VMRO-DPMNE once again said the elections were not priority.
