She said that her country has the right to demand Gruevski’s extradition.
“It’s within the right of Hungarian authorities to take a decision on this, but I expect the government of this country, which is an EU member country, to act according to European standards and conventions, in particular according to the European Convention for Extradition which we have ratified and signed along with Hungary”, Justice Minister Deskoska said.
