The defeats and scams of Zoran Zaev and SDSM government are becoming common practice. After the disastrous level of capital investments realized in the first 4 months, the figures for foreign direct investments are also dire. Namely, this is the worst result in the past 10 years. Another infamous record, VMRO-DPMNE leader Hristijan Mickoski said in a video address on Facebook.

Foreign direct investments in the first quarter of 2019 amount to modest EUR 21.6 million. Inflows on the basis of direct investments are low and most often come from companies already operating in the Republic of Macedonia. There is no new investment at all. In February, for example, there was an outflow of capital from foreign direct investments in the amount of 300 thousand euros, and in March, capital outflow from foreign direct investment was higher and amounted to 6.8 million euros, said Mickoski.

According to Mickoski, if you compare this quarter to the quarters of the past ten years, foreign direct investment in the first quarter of 2019 is by far the lowest.

This is a confirmation that the unrealistic level of foreign direct investment achieved at the end of last year is an overwhelming result resulting from reinvested profits that artificially raised the percentage of foreign direct investment. Something we already debated about and something we already warned about. It is a big lie that there is a success in foreign direct investment. Figures and facts are ruthless. And they say another defeat, an unfulfilled promise of the Zoran Zaev and SDSM government, and the lack of a developing economy. And this at a time when the region has seen huge success in this field, while Macedonia is completely bypassed. And it will not be better. Because the time spent with this government is irretrievably lost. Citizens pay dearly the incompetence of the authorities. Changes are needed that will bring results, work and success to a better standard for each person. Macedonia needs economic restoration for a better life of citizens, said Mickoski.
