Levica party opposition in Skopje

Overview

The Levica political party has engaged in several actions criticizing the administration and management of Skopje. Initially, the party walked out of a Skopje City Council session to protest new procedural rules. Levica claimed these changes, implemented by Mayor Orce Gjorgjievski and VMRO-DPMNE, prevent meaningful debate and democratic oversight by forcing all questions to be asked at the start of sessions, which the party described as a “PR circus” that results in pre-prepared bureaucratic replies.

Following this, Levica raised concerns regarding the sale of approximately 23,000 square meters of land in the Aerodrom Municipality. The party criticized the sale of land near the Vardar river quay to the company ‘Adora’ at a rate of roughly 46 euros per square meter. Levica highlighted a disparity between this rate and the prices citizens pay for residential space, while demanding transparency on how the resulting 400,000 euros in proceeds would be used.
