Former MP Vlatko Gjorcev today in the Criminal Court in Skopje spoke about the events before and after April 27, 2017. As a long-term MP, he assessed that the whole procedure would have been completed in a week if all the registered discussants had been expected to finish their speeches.

That day, he says, many made requests to speak, but that then Parliament Speaker Trajko Veljanoski several times called on MPs to give up the right to speak.

April 27 was a bad day for Macedonia. Who won and who lost? VMRO lost the most, and thirty people ended up in prison. That is why I say that April 27 was not an exception, but a major plan. Someone wanted problems to happen, explained Gjorcev.
