At a press conference, SDSM’s Aleksandar Sasha Dimitrijevikj said tenders worth millions were awarded to companies close to VMRO-DPMNE.
“Digital One, formed at the end of August last year, with just two workers, has received, in one year, tenders worth nearly nine million euros in taxpayer money. Also, all these tenders have been with Governmental and state institutions from May 2025 to today, November 2025”, he pointed out.
The company, registered for trade in information and communication equipment, has won the amounts despite having no history, experience, and portfolio, Dimitrijevikj noted. Of the six state tenders, four were signed with the Secretariat General, he pointed out as well.
He also said among the questions was whether the founder, Kristijan Arsovski, was a relative of ex-VMRO-DPMNE spokesperson Dimche Arsovski.
The opposition party called on the Prosecutor’s Financial Police, and SCPC to open an investigation into, as it said, the pumping out of taxpayer money. Nonetheless, Dimce Arsovski said he didn’t even know Kristijan Arsovski.
“I haven’t met him. I don’t know how he looks like, nor is he a relative of mine on any basis. The only thing that’s the same is the surname”, he noted.
Arsovski added that he hadn’t been involved in any tenders.
