At the conference ”Perspectives 2019”, organized by CIVIL – Center for Freedom, activist Mersiha Smailovic spoke about the protests of neighboring Serbia and the hope they have, just like she had had when there were protests in Macedonia. She says that although recently many things have been happening that are disappointing, that hope must not be lost, nor should the fight stop.
“It’s important not to stop! This is where I also find myself! We must not lose energy! We need much wisdom to face all the problems. It is difficult to find a sentence for the hopes and perspectives, but we must not stop”, Smailovic is decisive
