VMRO-DPMNE President Hristijan Mickoski said that the disappearance of member of Parliament Kastriot Rexhepi, on the day when he was supposed to cast the key vote of no confidence in the Zaev Government, is a shame on our democracy.
I hope we see him alive and well, and see where he is. We know nothing about him except from this Facebook message, we haven’t seen him in person, if he is well. We don’t know if he has been kidnapped or held against his will, or if he willingly fled from the Parliament. If he were here, his vote would have been decisive to bring down the Government, or he could have split the Parliament 60 – 60 and spared us all this shame for our country. If the Government thinks that this outcome is a political triumph for them, they are very much mistaken. This is a humiliation for our democracy and the values which Rexhepi mentions in the Facebook post, Mickoski said.
He apologized for the public for being forced to follow such political developments today, regardless whether Rexhepi has been kidnapped, or is being part of a deal to buy and sell votes in the Parliament. “This evokes a strong sense of nausea – if he is kidnapped, it begs the question whether it is worth it to be engaged in politics in such a country”, Mickoski added.
