- SDMS will propose its own candidate for president of the State Election Commission but it will return to the Parliament when their requirements for fair and democratic elections are to be met. A coordination meeting was held Monday in the Parliament, which once again was not attended by members of opposition parties and speaker Trajko Veljanovski scheduled a new session for 15 March, with or without the opposition, at which the president of the State Elections Commission will be chosen. Veljanovski said that the majority will give support to any SDSM candidate.
