PM Zaev Comments on Several Topics

Answering a journalist’s question about a TV duel with Hristijan Mickoski, PM Zoran Zaev said on Wednesday the opposition leader had the Portuguese proposal. According to him, though he currently sees no reason to sit with Mickoski at a table, it can happen once it will not harm the negotiating process. When it comes to the parliamentary majority issue, Zaev said it can only grow, not reduce, adding that he was convinced that was so due to the government’s good policies in all spheres. With regards to the early elections, the PM stated that his party, SDSM, would be in a coalition with the current partners. However, he added that it would be additionally decided whether that would be for the first or second round.
