The ZNM association of journalists condemned Petar Bogojeski, leader of the minor Macedonian Concept party, for a threat he aimed at journalist Branko Geroski.

You will get your therapty and you will take it. No threat. It will be a bitter one. Watch it with your employees from the Serbian church. We are on to you, Bogojeski told Geroski.

Geroski’s Plusinfo news site would frequently publish articles supporting the Serbian Orthodox Church in its dispute ove the Macedonian Orthodox Church. Bogojeski’s party, on the other hand, is often aligned towards Bulgaria.

ZNM told Bogojeski that as a journalist, Geroski has the right to publish what he wants without being exposed to hate speech.
