According to them, the Zoo has been facing a سلسلة of unpleasant incidents since the beginning of the term of former mayor Danella Arsovska.

They recall that Skopje Zoo has turned into a place where horses intended as food for the zoo were slaughtered, with blood spilled on Ilinden Boulevard, while animals have continually died under unclear circumstances. Among them, they mention giraffes, an elephant, an imperial eagle, the lion Zika, then the rare and protected Przewalski’s horses, Barbary sheep, as well as an outbreak of bird flu.

After several hours of pursuit by the staff, the wolves were returned to their areas, but the Zoo did not inform anyone about this event, even though it is a place with many visitors, where their safety could be called into question,” PLD said.

They are demanding that the management of the Zoo and the City of Skopje explain the incident, clarify whether the animal habitats, especially those that pose a threat to life, are properly secured, and close the zoo to visitors until the case is clarified and responsibility is determined./Telegrafi/

Speaking from the Assembly podium, PLD president and MP Monika Zajkova said today that the decision is not about the interests of the banks, but about determining whether the representatives are on the side of the citizens or on the side of bank profits.

She stressed that the PLD has been raising this issue for three years, continuously warning that it is not normal for citizens to face ever-higher fees while banks post record profits.

Zajkova added that for three years, only justifications have been heard, while citizens continue to face new costs.

In a statement to “TV24,” Zajkova said these figures clearly show the existence of a problem which, according to her, is being driven by certain factors. She assessed that even if perfect regulations are adopted, without preventing the phenomenon and without opening a debate on the prevention system and on the sources that feed this phenomenon, a reduction in the number of cases cannot be expected. On the contrary, according to her, there will be a further increase in the figures, despite the fact that progress has so far been recorded in a large part of the legislation.

She added that Macedonia is among the states that have ratified and are implementing the Istanbul Convention. Zajkova stressed that, unlike some European countries that still have not ratified this Convention, the country has built a strong legal basis for dealing with violence, although, as in the case of any other law, it should be continuously improved in line with needs and experience./Telegrafi/
