Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski does not reject the possibility of organizing early parliamentary elections even if the opposition boycotts them. On the other hand, next week BDI will present its stance on what it would do if the opposition boycotts the elections.

Zoran Jovanovski from SDSM stated that the election of the president of the State Election Commission without the opposition might be legal but not legitimate. 

The Parliament will elect a president of the State Election Commission on 15 March, announced Parliament Speaker Trajko Veljanoski. Veljanoski emphasized that he was informed that SDSM would propose its own candidate.
