The decrees I signed do not concern the contract between Government and Bechtel-Enka, nor do they concern the supervisory board charged with supervising the construction of the motorways which was the target of well-founded criticism from the public, President Stevo Pendarovski told Radio Free Europe.
Regarding reports that by signing the decrees he wanted to secure political support from the ruling coalition for a second term, Pendarovski stressed that the decrees exclusively concern the contents of the five bills, and are in no way related to any other political or legal issue.
Pendarovski said the main reason he signed the Decree for the Labor Relations Law is because it didn’t contain the 60-hour workweek provision.
