New Proposal from Mickoski: Elections between Eid al-Fitr and Orthodox Easter

Unlike his previous stand that the second round of the presidential election and the parliamentary elections should be held simultaneously, on 8 May, on Monday, VMRO- DPMNE leader Hristijan Mickoski presented a new proposal, that is, the period between Eid al-Fitr and Orthodox Easter.

That means that the opposition is offering one of three Sundays (14, 21, and 28 April), unless a political deal is reached for the elections to be held on a working day. On the other hand, SDSM’s stand remains unchanged.

The party is ready to discuss dates, but first for the presidential election and then for the parliamentary elections.
