Rosoman, 26 April 2024 (MIA) – VMRO-DPMNE leader Hristijan Mickoski addressing rallies on Friday in Rosoman and Gradsko as part of presidential and parliamentary elections campaign, urged for higher voter turnout on May 8 and sending DUI into opposition.

"There are centers of power that do not want to see a successful Macedonia, we have such, and they were a key factor, so far they were both in the Government and here I mean DUI and Ali Ahmeti, he wants to see a impoverished Macedonia and so on. They do not want to see a successful Macedonia," Mickoski said.

He said that these elections are an opportunity to send criminals into opposition.

"And I say this solely because of the crime, I don't say it about DUI because they are Albanians, no, but because of the crime. I called on the opposition among the Albanians to fight together. I am fighting against DUI who are robbing Macedonia and putting it on its knees," Mickoski added.
