Macedonian conservatives secure win after rerun

[Albobalboa]

Unless the Macedonian coalitions SDSM and VMRO unite against the Albos the Albanians have the upper hand here. The downside of them uniting would mean that the country would be divided into Albanian and Macedonian while Albanians are secured a spot in the ruling coalition either way. But that's the only way to stop the country from becoming bilingual in the coming months.

It's a little bit nervous our noble neighbor. The reason probably is this:

Youre posting outdated and disproven genetic theories from igenea. That shit is like 10 years ago. Try again. Even they removed it from their page. Its just randomly attributes certain haplogroups to a certain population without any actual evidence. Bosniak nationalists still jerk off to this pseudo bullshit.

You must be really a fucking noob to still cling on to this shit. Lmao. Jesus Christ. Albanians more Slavic than Bosniaks lmao.

We have come much further since then regarding understanding of Balkan genetics. Everything there is nonsense and disproven. Its obvious youre a noob when you still quote this.

Please don't waste my time anymore.

That is the only evidence based on science. All the rest is in line with your stile. I am not asking you to read my posts so I am not responsible how well you spend your time.

VMRO DPMNE leader Nikola Gruevski's New Year "mega interview" for the news portal Republika - in which he accused the Foundation Open Society - Macedonia, FOOM, of plotting to topple his government in the name of "foreign interests", naming US Billionaire George Soros as the alleged mastermind - has heated up Macedonia's media and social networks.

Citing data from FOOM, Deutsche Welle reminded its readers that Gruevski's attacks on FOOM ignore the fact that many of his most prominent associates and supporters were affiliated to this NGO in the past.

Close ally Macedonian President Gjorge Ivanov, VMRO DPMNE's presidential candidate in two elections, was on the NGO’s executive board from May 2002 to October 2004.

Ilija Dimovski, an MP and coordinator of the ruling party’s parliamentary group, was a member of the NGO’s subcommittee for awarding scholarships for studies abroad, DW reminds.
Former Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki and Toni Mihajlovski, a prominent actor and outspoken member of the pro-government movement GDOM, both used its scholarships.

Meanwhile, Macedonia's ambassador to London, Jovan Donev, another firm supporter of Gruevski's government, was president of FOOM's management board from 1996 to 2002.
He was later the executive director of the Skopje-based Evrobalkan institute of which FOOM was a founder.

Ratko Dimitrovski, Mayor of Kocani municipality and a former VMRO DPMNE MP, was the recipient of the single greatest grant that the NGO ever awarded since its formation.

In the mid-1990s, in the early years of Macedonian pluralism, FOOM gave over a million US dollars for printing equipment for Dimitrovski's printing house "Europe 92", which helped break the state-owned NIP Nova Makedonija's monopoly over printed media.
In a New Year interview for the Republika news site, Gruevski accused the opposition and NGOs of working against Macedonia's interests.

In the interview, entitled "Civil Sector Must Not Remain in the Hands of Soros," Gruevski, who is hoping to form a new government after December's close election result, accused George Soros of financing "a modern army" of corrupt NGOs in Macedonia that had plotted to topple him.

"That is the reality and unfortunately that is how Soros works. Then they do what they want. They squash you and slam you. They will make you a criminal, a crook and a traitor, an idiot, incompetent and a monster - whatever they want," he said.

During a speech made shortly after the December 11 election, Gruevski accused foreign ambassadors, NGOs and the opposition of plotting to steal his election victory and warned that he intended to "de-Soros-ise" the country, remarks that drew expressions of concern from Brussels.

Shortly after, in December, financial inspectors were sent to investigate some 20 NGOs in Macedonia, including FOOM and its affiliates.

In May 2016, afteer the recently formed Special Prosecution, SJO, started to investigate Gruevski and other party members, Gruevski accused critics within the NGO sector of performing “sect-like” rituals that involved group chanting and stamping on his party logo.

"The years-long tendency of Gruevski and the VMRO DPMNE leadership to create imaginary enemies and threaten their critics with purges is evident," FOOM's executive director, Fani Karanfilova, told Deutsche Welle last Wednesday.
She added that the recent verbal attacks - and financial inspections - showed that the "harangues" against NGOs were gaining momentum.
Macedonian news portal Meta.mk has meanwhile calculated that in the last so-called mega-interview, only in the first two out of four published daily sequels, Gruevski mentioned Soros's name no less than 53 times. This, Meta.mk says, highlight the "enormous attention" that Gruevski is paying to "dueling with the US billionaire".

Gruevski's remarks caused heat on twitter as well.

"Either he [Gruevski] will shut down the civil sector or the civil sector will close [incarcerate] him. The battle against Gruevski enters its final phase!" wrote seasoned journalist and columnist Branko Trickovski on twitter.

"Gruevski is allergic to different opinions and there is no anti-allergens for that", tweeted journalist Borjan Jovanovski.

Gruevski, whose party has held power since 2006, upped its attacks on NGOs and foreign ambassadors after the December 11 elections, when it became apparent that he would have a hard time convincing his long standing ethnic Albanian partner in government, the Democratic Union for Integration, DUI, to renew the coalition.
Both VMRO DPMNE and the opposition say they have launched unofficial talks with Albanian parties on forming a new government.
