After former Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski claimed on Facebook from Budapest that former Prime Minister Zoran Zaev is "starting construction of an 82-story tower in Dubai," Zaev denied such claims and told "Sloboden Pechat" that they are completely untrue.

Gruevski wrote in a post on the social network, among other things:

Zaev is probably very proud of himself these days when, according to information, construction of an 82-story tower in Dubai is starting, an investment of over 600 million euros. Most of the money for this investment was embezzled through a massive racket like never before in the existence of Macedonia and with the abuse of power during his rule, money in cash and then transferred by private plane to Dubai and placed in a bank account. 

Former Prime Minister Zoran Zaev, however, told "Sloboden Pechat" that this is a complete lie.

How far out of touch does a person have to be to say and claim such nonsense. The vain are just waiting to get caught up in such nonsense to cure their vanity. Zaev employs over 1.000 people in Macedonia. That was before I was in politics, that was while I was in politics, and that is still the case now, after more than three years since I have permanently left politics. I am not building any tower in Dubai, that is a complete lie, Zaev told us.
