Zoran Zaev announced that he will not reveal the names of the purged and the new Government ministers today, as was initially expected. He now says that the proposal will be submitted to the Parliament on Sunday.

Zaev cited visits from a group of foreign finance ministers and World Bank and IMF officials as the reason to postpone his long announced “purge” of the most corrupt and incompetent members of his Government.

All decisions have been made and I will submit the proposals to Parliament on Sunday afternoon, Zaev said.
