The executive committee of opposition SDSM held a meeting Thursday evening at which Stevo Pendarovski was proposed as the only candidate of SDSM for the presidential elections. Pendarovski’s nomination is expected to be confirmed Tuesday (4 March), first by SDSM’s central committee and then by the party congress.

Although he had been denying for a long time that he had tabled the idea with SDSM, in a statement for Press 24 Thursday, he confirmed he accepted the nomination.

“I was told I was proposed by all 76 municipal organizations and that I had been given the largest support compared to the other candidates. It is for this reason that I decided to accept the offer,” Pendarovski said.
