The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) today accused the government of creating chaos by drafting and repealing laws, actions that, the party said, are drawing fresh criticism from the EU.
The party called the situation a scandal, amateurism and an unprecedented disaster, saying it was unmatched even in less sophisticated countries. According to the LDP, yesterday the government and the majority returned to their “write-and-delete” approach after realizing they had “accidentally” removed key positions, and are now heading back to Parliament to draft laws overnight under emergency procedures.

The LDP added that leaders read out written reports and pretend not to know, even though the European Commission’s message is clear: the way legislation is being handled is creating chaos and placing Macedonia in the same category as extremely dysfunctional and incompetent states. The party asked who would invest in a country where laws change every hour to serve narrow interests and party directives.
According to the LDP, the analyses in the European Commission’s latest report confirm high-level corruption, while frequent and unpredictable legal changes directly reinforce the perception of impunity. The party accused the government of offering the public a favorable image, false reforms, unsuccessful confiscations and legal solutions that “target” corruption without punishing it, instead of fighting crime. It said the people bear the consequences of this incompetence, while the state loses at every turn.
The LDP described the situation as the height of incompetence and as “legal savagery” that must stop immediately.
LDP leader Monika Zajkova said that an amnesty was first voted through to protect high-level corruption, while daily amendments to the Criminal Code under expedited procedures are now causing chaos and imposing harsh penalties on ordinary citizens. She added that the country is receiving clear criticism from the European Union because the government has turned the state into a private zone for tenders and party manipulation. Zajkova called for an end to this scandalous conduct and to the burying of the rule of law.
