Macedonian Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski has publicly urged the nation’s opposition parties to reach an agreement regarding necessary amendments to the Electoral Law. Mickoski stated that for the new proposals to gain full support, the process must incorporate input and approval from the Macedonian diaspora. He emphasized the urgency of the situation, asserting that the time for internal political maneuvering had concluded.
Mickoski called for the opposition to engage in direct negotiations to expedite the legislative process. He suggested that a resolution must be reached swiftly, ideally by mid-July. According to Mickoski, timely passage of these amendments is crucial to ensure the state can proceed with its planned reforms without delay.
He addressed the opposition directly, requesting that they articulate their positions and commit to a timeline that would allow the 10th committee to be successfully finalized. The Prime Minister framed this cooperation as a necessary step for national progress, insisting that consensus among the political factions was required to move forward. Mickoski stressed that cooperation was the key to completing the necessary legal framework, thereby allowing the government to maintain momentum on its reform agenda.
His appeal centers on securing a unified front from the opposition to finalize the electoral legislation promptly.
