Miteva says she resigned as MP after being appointed gov't spokeswoman

Skopje, 10 October 2024 (MIA) – New Government spokeswoman Marija Miteva has revealed she resigned as member of Parliament following public backlash over her appointment as spokeswoman while also being a lawmaker.

“First and foremost, the formal legal aspect is most important, which wasn’t circumvented, because yesterday I stepped down as MP sending a written irrevocable resignation letter. Legally, I neither served two posts nor I had the legal opportunity to do so,” Miteva said in a Facebook post.

Parliament at its next session should verify Miteva’s resignation.
