"This is a huge scandal," he says of "Deutsche Welle" the leader of VMRO-DPMNE, Hristijan Mickoski after the audience at Skanderbeg Square whistled the host of the event dedicated to the 21st anniversary of the signing of the Ohrid Framework Agreement, which spoke in the Macedonian language.

"It is an event paid for with government, that is, state money. At that event, the Macedonian language was booed, the same one that the Government is selling cheaply in the negotiations with Bulgaria. Is this the kind of cheering the Minister of Culture was thinking of when she justified the spending of public money for such party celebrations. It is a great shame that there is no reaction from the Government. Nationalism does not force politics. This only shows the division of society and the existence of two parallel worlds. "Such barriers are built by the political elites of the government to make it easier for them to realize their personal interests related to business motives, while Macedonian and Albanian citizens sink into the artificial hatred that is fueled by the politicians that suit them," says Mickoski.
