Justice Minister Nikola Tupancevski said that he will not resign over his trip to Palermo, for the football game with Italy, and continues to insist tha the paid his own fare. Tupancevski did not provide the receipts, after one of his fellow travelers, controversial prosecutor Fatime Fetai, was debunked that she paid for the trip after it happened.

I don’t feel I need to resign. I don’t think I violated the code of ethics just because I went to the football match Macedonia – Italy. It is true that I flew on the Football Federation plane, but I paid for the ticket and for the stadium ticket as well, Tupancevski said.
