The newly elected President of SDSM Dimitar Kovacevski, together with his predecessor and current Prime Minister Zoran Zaev held meetings with representatives of coalition partners that are part of the parliamentary majority. “These are consultative meetings to get acquainted with the manner of cooperation with coalition partners so far, as well as future cooperation in the coalition,” confirmed SDSM. Zaev assured the coalition partners that he will resign from the post of Prime Minister by the New Year, and the new government cabinet headed by the newly elected leader of SDSM, Dimitar Kovacevski, will be formed by mid-January at the latest, about which the ruling partners say they have no objections.
