OBRM-PDUKM MP Brane Petrushevski, after yesterday's protest by the Federation of Trade Unions of Macedonia, accused LSM and SDSM of acting in collaboration and that the protest was not an authentic expression of workers' dissatisfaction, but a political event that was also supported by the opposition party.

According to the press conference, he claims that there were people with LSM symbols at the protest and that, according to him, this shows coordination between the union and the party.


Petrushevski said that the public "has been clear since yesterday" that LSM and SDSM are acting together, adding that local SDSM structures, according to him, participated in organizing the protest.

His statement also mentions activists from several cities, including Kumanovo, Tetovo and Strumica, as part of, as he claims, the logistics surrounding the protest.
