Ivanov Holds Macedonia hostage, Don't Sign Name Agreement Second Time

Parliament Speaker Talat Xhaferi does not rule out the possibility for the Law to ratify the agreement between Macedonia and Greece to return to Government, announcing the executive that the president will not sign the law even for the second time. With this move, the Parliament will also seek a government opinion on the need for this law. [...]
With this move, the Parliament will also seek a government opinion on the need for this law.
After the executive body's insistence on the conduct of this law, it opens the way for the same one to return to the country for verification. Most in this case are obliged to submit the law to the Official Journal.
For Xhaferin, the move remains one of the modalities, the more the official newspaperer has been positively promoted in the law's publication. The Law on Use of Languages will be passed in similar procedure.
For formal terms, to explain whether the Government stands above those proposals that have been addressed in the Parliament in advance and adopted, I do not have that problem that I formally address the two laws' proposses whether they stand or not in these laws, but above all with proper reasoning the laws can go even without it for the fact that the Parliament has once been proposed for additional laws and decisions on laws are too much. But for the formal aspect that we can ensure the lives of the laws, we will apply all the reasons and arguments that the particular side is promoting and clarifying before the opinion, and there is no problem for me to make that formalism httpx1>, Xhaferi said.
The first of the lawmakers adds that, with the rule of law, the president blocks the referendum and the right of citizens to express himself, and in this case, the need to stop the practice imposed by the head of state by failing to decree laws is highlighted.
Speaking of the composition of the KSHZ and the parliamentary Commission's call for election and appointment, with which the opposition leads, Xhaferi stressed that from the commission chairman, he has observed readiness, but whose subject is the MP's makes instructions.
The law allows for other options, but these, according to Xhaferi, endanger the KSHZ composition vote for which 2/3 of the votes are needed.
“Commission chairman given that he is a member of the opposition political party, has no signal from his party to call the commission and turns out VMRO himself- The DPMNE stands in the way of the commission's appointment and election work. Formally I can complete the commission's work. The law has the potential to come up with the commission's composition proposal, but it should be assessed if that action would complicate the situation more, for the fact that the commission's composition should be voted by 2/3 of the vote, or it would be the starting point for resolving the problem. The law sanctiones the possibility that even if a subject does not propose a candidate for a member of the KSH, the Commission for Elections and Names may determine candidates from the list of candidates for KSHZ members, instead of the subject which proposes, but again I say the fact that the composition should be voted by 2/3 of the vote”, the speaker of the Assembly said.
In calling for the Commission's election meeting and appointment, the opposition as a precondition has set the passage of the Law to fund political parties and the Law on Government. The chairman of this commission, Ilija Dimovski, argues with the lack of co-ordination among political parties. Procrastination of the KSHZ election questions holding the referendum in late September or early October, and with that also organising presidential elections in March 2019. /Alsat-M/
