The street that connects the City Park, City Stadium and the quay on the Vardar River will be named “Stoltenberg Street”, in honor of the Norwegian diplomat Torvald Stoltenberg, in gratitude of the City of Skopje and of the people of Skopje for his unselfish help after the catastrophic earthquake that struck Skopje in 1963.
Minister of Interior Oliver Spasovski, following the working meeting between CIVIL- Center for Freedom and the MOI, stated that the two sides have an excellent cooperation, which the Memorandum of Cooperation testifies to, and which opens a broad normative framework for preventive action in many areas of joint interest.
Exercising the inviolable voting rote of citizens is the main goal of our project “I vote, therefore I am”, which CIVIL – Center for Freedom is implementing. On that occasion, today in the center of Skopje, CIVIL set up info-stands where the citizens had the opportunity to learn and get familiar with the project’s activities and goals. They also had the opportunity to register for monitoring in the upcoming referendum, scheduled for September 30.
