New audio leaks have been published on YouTube, in which the voice of Zoran Zaev can be heard talking to an unknown interlocutor in relation to his political activities.

According to what can be heard, the SDSM leader talks about his conditions to “agree” with the then director of UBK Saso Mijalkov, asking him for a counter-service so that he does not publish the illegally tapped conversations about him.

Furthermore, a conversation can be heard in which the interlocutor asks him about the staffing decisions, and Zaev mentions Petre Silegov. Regarding this, the interlocutor says that Silegov is a suspicious man who “piled up money” while he was chairman of the second instance commission. The leader of SDSM replies that he “knew, absolutely” but that was it.
