Skopje, 7 May 2023 (MIA) - The preamble is the priority of the working group drafting the constitutional changes, says Justice Minister Krenar Lloga and expects the revision to pass in the Parliament.

"I find it unfortunate that VMRO-DPMNE is not part of this group. I again urge them to be part of the success on the path to Macedonia's European future. I believe the ones who accepted to be part of this working group are very brave and remarkable people, who knew they would be smeared by a portion of the public, but chose to contribute to the country joining the EU family. I believe we will have a success story that must be adopted in the Parliament," Minister Lloga told Radio Free Europe.

He says there is still room for VMRO-DPMNE to support the constitutional changes.

"VMRO-DPMNE has said on several occasions it would support the constitutional changes, with their leader saying once he sought for firm guarantees from the EU, but also that they would support the changes if the Croatian model was to be followed. Therefore, if VMRO-DPMNE does not find the strength as one of the largest political parties, the right people will be found within the party, people who recognize the country's future," says Lloga.
