After concluding the resignation, speaker Xhaferi instructed the SEC to send the next MP candidate from VMRO-DPMNE’s list, so that his mandate can be verified.
Pavle Bogoevski resigned due to a recording that was published with a compromising telephone conversation. He said he would be returning to his civic activism, from where he came to being an MP.
