On Tuesday, VMRO-DPMNE leader Hristijan Mickoski met with Ambassadors Georg Woutsas (Austria), Jaroslav Ludva (Czech Republic), and Henrik Markus (Slovakia). The meeting was of preparatory nature prior to the visits of the Foreign Ministers of the three countries to North Macedonia, which should take place on Thursday. At the meeting, Mickoski said the Government was involved in numerous “criminal scandals”, resulting in citizens sinking in poverty. The opposition leader also stated citizens were right to have a very low level of trust in judicial organs because SDSM and DUI controlled them. As he added, that is best confirmed by the US, too. Mickoski reiterated his party’s stand that early elections are needed. The opposition leader expressed gratitude for the support and friendly relation of the three countries towards Skopje.
