“A party of the ethnic Albanians will be part of the new government because this is an unwritten rule in our country,” Antonio Milososki said in the interview for the Macedonian and Albanian-language programs of BBC. Milososki explained that VMRO-DPMNE would form a coalition with an Albanian party, despite the fact that such thing is not needed considering the absolute majority that VMRO-DPMNE has in the Parliament, the media report. A1 TV reported on Tuesday that the same ministers from VMRO-DPMNE would remain on the key positions. A change is only expected in the Defense Ministry.

“The conduct of the two political parties of the Albanians in the elections will essentially affect our decision on which party we will choose to be our coalition partner. This is one more indicator that we, as a ruling party that shoulders responsibility in the state, want to have a coalition partner that perceives democracy in a modern and contemporary manner,” Milososki assessed.
