Former Prime Minister of Macedonia, Nikola Gruevski, today on his Facebook profile announced that these past days he had been receiving threats against his life and that he has left for Budapest, where he has sought asylum from the Hungarian authorities.
“I will always remain faithful to the Macedonian cause. I will never give up”, wrote Gruevski.
The Ministry of Interior and the Criminal Court are waiting for the information that Gruevski is in Budapest to be confirmed, after which they will issue an order for issuing an international arrest warrant.
Minister of Interior, Oliver Spasovski, previously today stated that he does not feel responsible for Gruevski’s escape and that responsibility should be sought in the court, which did not order detention.
