Kurti in the election race in northern Macedonia, Kovachevski: So far I've seen something like this, it would be undesirable.

Northern Macedonia Prime Minister Dimitar Kovacevski has commented on the participation of Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti's party in parliamentary elections in the neighbouring state, saying he has never seen anything like it.

Kovachevski said that “should be seen what exactly is meant “, because according to him, if the Vetevendosje Movement intends to compete in the May 2024 elections in northern Macedonia, it would be “a dynamic kind of undesirable”.

“It is not unknown for party sisters to participate in political support of parties in other states. However, so far I have not seen parties from other countries participate in an election process in another country. It should be seen what exactly is meant, because if political parties from the neighbourhood start participating in elections in our country, it may happen that they want to participate in other countries, which I think would present a kind of undesirable dynamic”, Kovacevski told reporters in Skopje.

The Vetevendosje movement yesterday was also officially involved in the ruling race in northern Macedonia, joining the Albanian opposition coalition in a coalition.
