A “soft” coup in FYROM?

The Albanian minority could pull the separatist card

Newsroom March 2 07:46

 

The Belgium newspaper “La Libre Belgique” published an article that raises the question of whether there is a “soft” coup taking place in Skopje as we speak.
The problem begun when the country’s President Zoran Zaev refused to give the order for the formation of a government to the SDSM political party that has 67 of the 120 seats of the Parliament and additionally the support of the 20 MPs of the country’s Albanian party.
According to the newspaper, the risk of a separatist movement coming forward on behalf of the Albanian minority can not be ruled out.
