Skopje, 15 February 2024 (MIA) – The Post of North Macedonia issued Thursday a postal stamp marking the 60th anniversary of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of North Macedonia. In addition to the stamp, for the first time after six decades the Court is set to receive a logo of its own – a symbol which will be used on all memoranda and notes issued by the institution.

Six thousand copies have been printed of the postal stamp designed by Stojanche Velichkovski, which has been assigned a nominal value of Mden 36.

“The Constitutional Court marks a significant jubilee today. Sixty years ago on this day, the Constitutional Court held its first session in the then Socialist Republic of Macedonia. This jubilee is a point of pride for the whole country, being older than even the independence of the Republic, since the Constitutional Court was one of the six constitutional courts in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The long tradition of the existence of the Constitutional Court is proof that the Court has passed the test of time and hasn’t yielded to the challenges that have tried to undermine the foundations of the country, democracy, and especially the rule of law. For the Court, 2024 is a symbol of constitutional tradition and, on that occasion, through numerous activities the Court will remind of the importance of its existence,” said the President of the Constitutional Court, Dobrila Kacarska, at the promotion of the postal stamp.

On the occasion of its jubilee, the Constitutional Court will also host a blood drive, sign memoranda for cooperation with domestic organizations, as well as rebrand itself through a new website which Kacarska said is still under development.
