Former Prime Minister and former leader of the center-left SDSM party Vlado Buckovski predicts that incumbent Social Democrat leader and potential prime minister-designate Zoran Zaev will break up the Alliance for Albanians/Alternativa coalition.
“I expect Zaev to form a government with DUI, DPA and Alternative. That is 66 MPs. As a reminder, these parties are represented in the outgoing government, the Culture Minister Ismaili is from the ranks of Alternativa”, says the Roman law Professor Vlado Buckovski.
He believes that such a composition of the government can receive support from the eight MPs of the Alliance of Albanians, for laws that are reform laws.
“For the two-thirds reform laws, a common language will have to be found with VMRO-DPMNE. The local elections are in a year, the result of them can be a chance for the opposition (in case of their victory), to demand early elections,” Buckovski said.
