The state and the economy are slipping out of hand. I am in constant communication with the business community, with professors, economists, businessmen. Without exception they say the situation is alarming, VMRO-DPMNE President Hristijan Mickoski said at a press conference.
According to Mickoski, due to party interests, the budget expenditures were raised without any coverage.
– A budget deficit of 70 million euros has been made for the first two months. During that time, a new borrowing of 250 million euros has been made to cover up such electoral corruption. They did not think of the rest of the year, because the elections were everything to them. This irresponsible handling has led to poor budgeting. And it is even worse with the financial crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the VMRO-DPMNE leader said.
