The ruling party, OBRM-PDUKM, says that Venko Filipce's announcements of changes in the party for the time being began and ended with his party colleague, Aleksandar Trajanovski.

"Only his party friend Trajanovski, who entered the elections knowing from the beginning that he was a loser, agreed to be the vice-president of SDSM. Nothing has come of Filipce's announcements about new personnel and reforms, and it is unlikely that anything will come of them, because after the events in the party, everything revolves around Zoran Zaev's dictates," says OBRM-PDUKM.

Therefore, they add that one thing is clear for SDSM - changes and reforms in the party there can only happen if Filipce resigns.

"As long as everything revolves around villas, hotels, yachts, parties in the United Arab Emirates and Greece, there will be no change. Trajanovski himself is part of this photo, or seen this summer in Greece on luxurious weekends spent on yachts and villas together with Filipce and Zaev. Trajanovski is not change and reform for SDSM. Change and reform is only Filipce's resignation and the party's departure from Zaev's dictatorship," the OBRM-PDUKM response states.
