SDSM sounded the alarm: the government is bringing a law to parliament tomorrow to abolish the technical government - the only mechanism for overseeing the electoral process. Like unlocking the safe before everyone goes home.
Amendments to the Law on Government are on the agenda for tomorrow's plenary session. The opposition called them "smuggled" - passed without consensus, without debate, without SDSM's participation. The technical government, they remind us, is the legacy of the Przino Agreement - a mechanism designed precisely because elections in Macedonia have a history of problems.
"Such laws during the SDSM era were adopted by consensus, not by smuggling as the VMRO government is attempting" - the opposition declared. The question they're raising is legitimate: why the rush, why now, why without agreement?
SDSM claims the drop in trust in VMRO-DPMNE is the reason - "over 150,000 fewer votes" is the number they're working with. The logic: when your ratings drop, you change the rules. When the rules don't suit you, you abolish oversight.
Mickoski previously announced that if all parliamentary groups don't agree, the technical government could remain for one more election before final abolition. But Parliament President Afrim Gashi expressed doubt that the government would proceed without an inter-party agreement.
The opposition additionally accuses the government of completely occupying the judiciary - "judges and prosecutors tailored to Mickoski" - and a politicized police. If you add the abolition of the technical government to that, the question is: who guards the elections?
