VMRO-DPMNE is about to announce a major new economic development program in the capital Skopje in the coming days, said opposition leader Hristijan Mickoski. His party now has almost full municipal control in the city and is putting in place infrastructure development programs.

This project will be of dramatic importance for the quality of life of the people in Skopje, and for the Macedonian economy, Mickoski said.

He pointed to the disastrous results of the Kovacevski Government in the economy, with the spiking inflation and energy prices as a reason why the opposition must get to work to try to help the citizens.
