VMRO-DPMNE to file bill amending law on associations and foundations after opening of controversial clubs
Ohrid, 7 October 2022 (MIA) - The VMRO-DPMNE parliamentary group on Friday will file a bill amending the law on associations and foundations aimed to prevent the opening of quasi cultural clubs and react involving existing ones allowed to be registered by the SDSM-led government, VMRO-DPMNE MP Rashela Mizrahi told reporters in Ohrid while a protest is under way against the opening of the Tsar Boris III Bulgarian cultural club.
"These aren't European values and we have to put an end to these processes today," she said.
According to the opposition lawmaker, after Vancho Mihajlov and Tsar Boris III attempts will continue to be made to revise the history of Macedonia and present the occupiers as liberators.
"In the past two years, actors are becoming more visible on the political scene in Macedonia and Bulgaria that advocate for revising of history, the historical facts, which amongst other things has been resulting in distorting the truth about the holocaust of Jews from Macedonia," Mizrahi stated mentioning that a total of 7,144 Macedonian Jews had been deported to the Treblinka concentration camp by the Bulgarian occupying forces during WWII.
It is completely contradictory to the 2022 United Nations Resolution on Holocaust Denial, Mizrahi stressed.
