Within seven days I will prepare a program and submit a candidacy for president. SDSM is a party with the greatest personnel potential and has a number of prominent members who would be excellent candidates, said Dimitar Kovacevski for "Fokus".

According to him, the procedure is democratic and anyone who meets the conditions can run. "The most important thing is that we all need to unite around the president-elect," he added.

Yesterday, the Central Board of SDSM decided to announce tomorrow the intra-party elections for election of president, which will be held on December 12. The election for the first person in the party is held by direct voting.

Kovacevski is the current Deputy Minister of Finance and a member of the Executive Board of the Social Democrats. He holds a Ph.D. in economics and is an associate professor at American College.
