According to VMRO-DPMNE, former leader Zaev’s presence at Monday’s marking of SDSM’s birthday shows he still pulls the strings within the party.
“Filipche, Dimitrijevikj, and SDS do not distance themselves from Zaev, on the contrary, they applaud and admire his presence”, the party said on Tuesday, criticizing the former PM over matters such as the identity, name change, judiciary, and corruption.
The “pardoned criminal” was “welcomed by his loyalists” headed by party leader Filipche and Secretary General Dimitrijevikj as a supreme leader, VMRO-DPMNE noted.
