SDSM – DUI presidential candidate Stevo Pendarovski finishes his pre-election campaign in Struga and Ohrid, where he again presented himself as the candidate who will accomplish EU and NATO membership and will best represent the minority ethnic communities in Macedonia.

Struga has a long tradition of having different ethnic communities who have always lived together well. This is how I imagine our country, as one society for all, a state integrated in the European Union and NATO, Pendarovski said, frequently avoiding to say the name of the country he is running to be the President of.

He said that a win for the opposition VMRO-DPMNE party would mean international diplomatic isolation for Macedonia and called for a high turnout to have him elected as President in his second attempt, following the failed 2014 run.
