Skopje, 12 August 2024 (MIA) — Following DUI's announcement that they will organize their own celebration to mark the 23rd anniversary of the Framework Agreement, Health Minister Arben Taravari told reporters that DUI was organizing "private parties" because they still could not accept they were the opposition.
"DUI somehow always has pretensions to privatize certain events. They still cannot accept they are the opposition, but they will get used to it in time," Minister Taravari said.
"Anyone can throw a party. We invited them to tomorrow's event, organized by the Government of the Republic of Macedonia. They are welcome, but let them continue throwing private parties," he said.
He also said historical events were never privately owned by anyone and they would always belong to the country's citizens.
Earlier, DUI's European Front coalition announced that it would celebrate the 23 years of the Ohrid Peace Agreement at an event titled "The Academy for Legitimacy" to be held at Skopje's Aleksandar Palace hotel on Tuesday.
On Friday, Member of Parliament Saranda Imeri from the Worth It coalition invited DUI leader Ali Ahmeti to attend the event organized by the state to mark the 23rd anniversary of the 2001 Framework Agreement.
She said there was an attempt "to privatize a bright date in Albanian history."
"Twenty-tree years ago, when the Ohrid Agreement was signed, we wrote a new chapter in the history of Macedonia," Imeri said.
"For me, as the daughter of Imer Imeri, one of the signatories of this landmark agreement, this is much more than a political document.
"It is the legacy of a generation that fought for a better future and a shared society. I am embittered to see a date that should be uniting us being used for narrow-sighted partisan interests," she said on Friday. mr/
