It has been confirmed that SDSM’s claims are untrue, because there are no migrants in the country, but there will be a high-speed railway, Macedonian Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski said in response to a reporter’s question about the progress of projects for financing under the Strategic Partnership Agreement with the United Kingdom.
The studies for the high-speed railway on Corridor X, as the PM said, should be ready by July at the latest, after which a procedure for a law in the Parliament will follow, and from autumn and in the field, the yellow card procedure should begin.
“If you think about Corridor X, there were our partners from Great Britain, there was also the potential lender, there were representatives from UK Export Finance. We discussed it in the Government, in the Ministry of Transport and in the Ministry of Finance. The feasibility study being carried out by the Ministry of Transport and the environmental impact assessment study should be completed around this month, and let’s say in July at the latest. If everything goes as it should, then we will go to Parliament with a law and, God willing, from autumn we can also start on the ground according to the yellow card procedure. There are no migrants, and there are no unsuccessful asylum seekers, and the lies coming from SDSM have been confirmed again that they are lies, and there will be none. I want this to be clearly stated, clearly specified because we were supposed to have a wave of such people in April, here it is mid-June, there is none, and there will be none, and there will be a high-speed railway that will be Corridor X and which will connect our northern border and our southern border,” said PM Mickoski after attending the commissioning of a nursing home in Skopje’s Ilinden.
