Filipche Criticizes Government on U.S. Aid, Mining, and Data Center Issues

SDSM leader Filipche said on Friday that the U.S. had reduced military aid to the country because, according to him, it knew what kind of government led the state.

“Two days ago, the U.S. visit of the PM, alongside a small segment of the organized criminal group running the country, began. However, our strategic partner evidently knows what kind of government they are and sent a clear message, unfortunately, resulting in the first-ever reduction of military aid to the country”, he noted.

When it comes to the antimony mine project, Filipche said citizens should decide via referendum whether they wanted mines near their homes. The SDSM leader leveled fierce criticism regarding the data center issue as well. Such projects could result in massive consumption of water and electricity without generating a significant number of jobs.
