GRUEVSKI: THERE IS POLITICAL DIALOGUE, ESPECIALLY IN PARLIAMENT

The thesis that there is no political dialogue has been wrongly postulated. There is political dialogue, especially in the Parliament, Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski said yesterday, responding to questions from the members of the Rotary Club in Macedonia.

"The real issue is the intent of one opposition party to enter the Government. The leader of this party has said that there are preconditions for the dialogue to continue. This does not mean that the Government does not want dialogue or that there is no dialogue. We are open. But problems arise when someone sets conditions. The problems that ensue from this are practically problems of the country and the citizens, not the Government. We will invest maximal efforts to get out of this situation," Gruevski said.

He added that the Government would not make imprudent decisions, despite the pressure from the opposition. "It will take only productive steps that are good for Macedonia," he said.
