Skopje, 21 February 2024 (MIA) - The SDSM leadership has decided on Wednesday to support a second presidential term of Stevo Pendarovski.   

Party sources say the SDSM leadership decided at a meeting today to back Stevo Pendarovski as a presidential candidate. The decision will also be presented before the members of the party's Executive and Central Boards in the coming days. Meetings with coalition partners are already planned for the next days, and the official nominating convention will be held on March 3.

"Pendarovski is the winning candidate, with the greatest coalition capacity, who strongly shares a vision for the country's European future together with SDSM and the parties of the progressive, democratic block. In his current term, he restored the integrity and credibility of the institution of the President and showed what it means to be a President for all citizens," SDSM said.
