LSDM: Changes in the Government Are Being Made for Positions and Business Interests

LSDM believes that “Hristijan Mickoski’s tender coalition is falling apart before the citizens’ eyes.”

According to the party, instead of an executive acting in the interests of the citizens, what is being seen is an open clash over posts, functions and businesses.

“ZNAM, the party that was created and financed by Mickoski, no longer exists. Only two people remain – Maksim Dimitrievski and Goran Minçev, who are now waging a direct battle for influence. Dimitrievski has his own man and is aiming for the Ministry of Agriculture, while Minçev does not want this department, because he knows that the funds there have been cut and farmers are extremely dissatisfied.”

“Filkov is seeking to remain in the post of Minister of Justice so that he can control the judiciary, obstruct investigations and carry out the planned tenders. Fear of responsibility and of investigations that may follow is the reason why he insists on staying at the Ministry of Justice at all costs. At the same time, Mickoski is looking for justification for early parliamentary elections.”

“The budget is empty, while the room for new borrowing is narrowing. He cannot allow pensions not to be paid. For this reason, he will try to borrow as much as possible, and when that is no longer feasible, he will seek a way out through elections. So far, he has failed to secure an alibi from the opposition. He is now trying to get it from one of his satellites, but they too know that such a step would seal them as accomplices in political manipulation,” LSDM said.
