Zaev: In principle there is consent over a consensual presidential candidate

“Today we are resuming meetings with our coalition partners from the Albanian bloc. First we will meet DUI, then BESA of Afrim Gashi and DPA. I will make an effort to meet with Zijadin Sela of the Alliance of Albanians and BESA of Bilal Kasami, in order to see whether we could all support a joint candidate who is acceptable for all citizens, regardless of the political, ethnic and social affiliation. I believe this is doable, once again confirming the concept One Society for All and sending a serious message of encouragement to our citizens regarding the responsibility to support a person that we know in advance will be an excellent President of the Republic of North Macedonia,” said PM Zaev.

Zaev also said that leaders of parties of the SDSM-led coalition confirmed late Sunday their agreement in principle over a joint presidential candidate.
