Bosnjakovski: Government expects two-thirds majority for constitutional revision

Spokesman Mile Bosnjakovski reiterated Wednesday the Government’s expectations for a two-thirds majority in Parliament for endorsement of the constitutional changes.

The Parliament’s Committee on Constitutional Issues is set to begin the debate on the Government’s motion over the need for constitutional amendments today, with Prime Minister Zoran Zaev addressing the body.

“We believe MPs are faced with a historic decision, which is crucial for the realization of Macedonia’s strategic objectives of NATO and EU membership. We believe and expect that the majority of MPs will respect the will of the majority of citizens who said ‘Yes’ at the September 30 referendum,” Bosnjakovski told a press conference related to the decisions of yesterday’s Government session.
