December elections key to solving Macedonia political deadlock: EU ambassador

Upcoming elections in Macedonia represent a test of responsibility and maturity for its leaders, institutions, media and citizens, EU Ambassador to Macedonia Samuel Zbogar said Friday.

According to him, a fair campaign and credible elections in December are a key step towards solving the political crisis in the country.

Speaking at a conference on advanced methods for auditing the financial report of political parties and election campaigns, Zbogar said this crisis has dealt a serious blow not only to the political system, but also to the very foundations of the rule of law and democratic progress.

He wished Macedonia to succeed in its path of Euro integration, reforms and prosperity. Endit
