Italian journalist Laris Gaiser, who published the tapes related to the “Racket” affair in the Italian newspaper La Verita, has appeared as a defender of Macedonian interests in combating politicians’ inappropriate behavior, in his latest post on Facebook.

Since 2015 I am following and reporting how a bunch of incompetent national politicians (right and left!) With the guilty complicity of some unfriendly foreign forces are shamelessly playing with the day by day life and destiny of Macedonian people. The blindness of the political elites mixed with malevolent international pressures have brought Macedonia to corruption and to become a dangerous example of commonly accepted limited sovereignty. All my past articles and speeches prove my efforts in preventing Macedonia from being humiliated, warn EU for its misconduct and save the international community from creating unacceptable precedents. Precedents in Balkans rarely brings benefits to international community, Gaiser wrote after the release of the second tape involving the “Racket” case.

He hopes that his reports will encourage further investigation of the case, in order Macedonia to become a shining example of a stable country.

My hope, today, with my reports is to encourage the good, still independents, free, judges – the true believers in the importance of the Rule of Law – to investigate forward and to make Macedonia a shining example of a stable country! Avoiding to be involved in internal political fights, I would like only give my little contribution in the search of truth in order to help Macedonian people to find new strength on the path toward a working State. Within the ongoing very complex geopolitical changes, we Europeans owe to Macedonia stability, security and unique historical wisdom. Instead of being artificially isolated Macedonia shall become as soon as possible a member of our, albeit imperfect, European Union making us stronger and richer!, Gaiser writes.
