Hristijan Mickoski accused of hypocrisy by LDP
The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) has accused Macedonian Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski of hypocrisy regarding his administration's stance on emigration and government officials.
The LDP highlighted a contradiction between the Prime Minister's actions in April and August. In April, Mickoski reportedly acknowledged that Deputy Prime Minister Arben Fetai no longer wished to serve in the government or live in Macedonia, subsequently facilitating his move to Brussels as a special representative at state expense.
In contrast, the LDP claims that in August, Mickoski expressed satisfaction with stricter conditions for Macedonian citizens seeking US visas, suggesting such measures serve to prevent emigration. The LDP argues that state policy should focus on improving domestic conditions—such as wages, healthcare, and education—rather than celebrating administrative barriers to travel.
