Outgoing Prime Minister Zoran Zaev confirmed that the head of his SDSM party’s Albanian wing Muhamed Zekiri is strongly opposed to renewing the coalition with DUI, but added that there are others in the party who are in favor. Zekiri is openly campaigning against DUI and rejects the idea of having a pre-election coalition with them, but SDSM is down in the polls and will have a hard time beating VMRO-DPMNE without one.

This is not the first time Muhamed Zekiri has said that he is opposed to a coalition with DUI, but there are people in SDSM who want one. There are also people in DUI who don’t want a coalition with SDSM. The funny thing is that the people will say who will form a coalition with whom in the end, Zaev said.
