North Macedonia: Zoran Zaev's government resigns

The procedure required by the early vote

03 January, 19:29
(ANSA) - SKOPJE, JANUARY 3 - Macedonian Prime Minister Zoran Zaev (Social Democrat) resigned today with his government, according to the procedure required by the early vote scheduled for April 12th. At the end of a long and deep political crisis, the government in Skopje - according to agreements reached in recent years - must resign 100 days before the early general elections, leaving its place to a technical cabinet who will bring the country to vote in spring. Zaev, who is the leader of the Social Democratic Party and who was the protagonist of the historic agreement with Greece on the new name of the former Yugoslav country, announced the early vote last October after the European Council had postponed the start of the accession negotiation to the EU with North Macedonia and Albania.
