VMRO-DPMNE accused that SDSM's PR strategy is being run by Serbian advisers from a Skopje hotel. According to Valentin Manasievski from the ruling party, Zoran Bashanovich, a former adviser to Zoran Zaev, leads the opposition's PR team together with Miljan Scekic from the Serbian agency "I Media."

Bashanovich and Scekic are reportedly based at the Skopje Hotel Park, from where they coordinate SDSM's communications center. On Zaev's recommendation, SDSM leader Venko Filipce had previously traveled to Nis for a meeting with Scekic.

"This reveals the truth behind SDSM's bankrupt statements and the many frequent Serbian phrases and comparisons in their communications," Manasievski stated.

VMRO-DPMNE announced that in the coming days at press conferences it will present additional evidence of Bashanovich's role and the reasons why SDSM is "so obsessed with SNS and Serbia."
