Naum Kotevski The trials conducted by the Special Public Prosecutor’s Office are followed by numerous controversies and political disputes, while the government and the opposition still cannot make up their minds when it comes to the adoption of the Law on Public Prosecution. Manipulating with hearings, illogical delays, ridiculous plots… When it comes to genre, …
Petar Arsovski So far, the dominant doctrine of who wins the US presidential race has always been related to the economy. Ever since Bill Clinton, who had that famous saying – “It’s the economy, stupid”, the performance of the US business was directly related to the outcome of the presidential race. Whether it’s right or …
Ilo Trajkovski Is beating not enough anymore? So quickly?! That’s what I’m asking myself during these days of turmoil in the Macedonian-Bulgarian relations. Until recently, or after signing the Friendship Treaty, it seemed as if there were good neighborly relations and cooperation between the two countries. When signing the Friendship Treaty, in August 2017, the …
Gjorgji Spasov In its 2016 election programme, SDSM has written: “We will propose that the MPs be elected on the principle of open lists, and that the Republic of Macedonia be one constituency. In this way, each vote will be equally important, and citizens will directly elect their representatives.” The basic idea for this promise, …
Zdravko Saveski As expected – we didn’t get a date for starting accession talks with the EU. Zaev, especially before the referendum, reassured us that we will start the accession negotiations with the EU in June this year. Those familiar with the situation knew that it was highly unlikely that this would happen even before …
Aleksandra M. Mitevska One can only assume where the cabinet of Prime Minister Zoran Zaev will be located in the upcoming period – the old address on Ilinden Street number 2, or the new building of the Ministry of Finance. Therefore, there is no longer a need for assumptions about the scope of the reshuffle …
Erol Rizaov Half of Macedonia is happy and celebrating that there is no date for negotiations with the EU, and the other half is disappointed and furious that old Europe has postponed the decision in three to four months. I do not know if these halves are equal halves, but it is evident that everyone …
Aleksandar Krzalovski The day has come for another long-awaited summit of the EU, or a meeting of the heads of the member states and their governments. But we already know the outcome we have been expecting, yesterday (June 18), the foreign ministers failed to make a decision for starting the accession negotiations with Macedonia with …
Slobodanka Jovanovska “Misery” was the reaction of a European diplomat to the conclusion of the EU member states with which, instead of giving us a date, as they promised, they announced they will “revisit” the topic. Everyone was praising us, no one was against Macedonia, but obviously they were not “in favor” because behind the …
Aleksandar Nikoloski Vice President of VMRO-DPMNE Dear readers of these lines, yesterday in Luxembourg was confirmed something we all already knew, actually something that was clear to some a lot earlier than it was to others – that Macedonia led by Zaev, Dimitrov, Osmani, Shekerinska and the rest of them will not get a date …
Zvonko Davidovic Angela had ninety different suits, for each and every occasion. Zaev rode a motorcycle to Prespa to feast on gjomoleze. Don’t speak English anymore, I beg you, said Ganka to Zaev. The housewife is happy and satisfied while making her favorite food. These are just some of the headlines I read on news …
Goran Adamovski If the interior minister was not attending a a public event on Thursday, we probably would never have known that one victims in the traffic accident near Drachevo was quite familiar to the police. Although he was less than 21 years old, the boy from Batinci had been stopped by the police up …
Nikola Popovski The signing of the state treaty between Macedonia and Bulgaria was a risky move for both parties. On one hand, the treaty can contribute to improving the relations between the two countries, which only the completely naive or uninformed consider them to be or have been good, and on the other hand, it …
Petar Arsovski Political analyst These days, the discussion over proposed changes to the electoral models, which were supported by many political actors, is the main topic. Although there has long been talk of these changes, there has been no political will to implement them, nor have we witnessed a serious discussion and analysis of the …
Aleksandar Cvetkoski It is true that the government can collapse due to a possible postponing of the date, but it’s not like we did everything to get on time, and in this regard, one thing that comes to mind is the saying: “Too many cooks”. If we take SDSM under consideration, another saying comes to …
Europe, first give us a reason to rejoice – We will weep later Read More »
Ilo Trajkovski The recently held elections for the European Parliament brought a few surprises. First, the voters went to the polls in a significantly larger number than expected. In addition to the numerous previously stated conclusions on the democratic deficit of the European institutions and the decline in their interest in politics, this time European …
Nano Ruzhin Paris remains a symbol of romanticism and love. When one says the name Paris, we immediately think of of Edith Piaf and her “anthem of love,” we think of Brassens and his beloved in the Luxembourg park, the chansons of Montagne, of Joe Dassin and the Indian Summer, of Gainsbourg and Birkin and …
Erol Rizaov Now that NATO membership and the start of negotiations with the EU have become a reality for the future of the country, we should constantly remind ourselves, so that we never forget that in the recent history the greatest Macedonian lies have evolved into truths. This is necessary for our further tough battles …
Zdravko Saveski A few days ago it was announced that all future cash payments will be limited to 500 euros. That amount is higher than the monthly income of the larger part of the population. And that part of the population rarely buys goods and services over 500 euros. The simply have no such purchasing …
Frosina Fakova – Serafinovic Businessman Orce Kamchev, a suspect in one of the SPO’s cases, won the gold medal in Cologne, and the institutions won a gold medal for public delusion. And if it was not for the victory of HC Vardar in the European Champions League, we would not have known that Orce and …
