The protest started yesterday and have continued today at 6 PM CET as a peaceful protest against the decision of President Gorge Ivanov, who abolished 56 politicians that are subject to investigations of the allegations contained in the wiretapped recordings, yesterday. Civil society, legal experts, and the international community expressed their indignation with the move.

Protesters demand immediate resignation of Ivanov, and clearly express their support for the Special Public Prosecutor, who is in charge of the investigation on abuse of power, corruption and electoral theft by the highest government officials, including the Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski.

CIVIL has strongly condemned the act of President Ivanov right after his public address yesterday.

The ruling party of VMRO-DPMNE has mobilized a large number of its members and supporters, mainly amongst the public administration’s employees, according to the reports of CIVIL’s monitors who are deployed across the country.

Skopje is peaceful at the moment. As announced, protests will continue tomorrow.
