PROBABLY THE MACEDONIAN
EMIGRANTS WILL VOTE!

Diaspora to vote on the time of the elections. They are saying that they
will push that resolution no matter there is no willingness from the
opposition, because that is enjoined by the Constitution, and the election
program, with which they received the trust from the citizens. Their purpose
is to change the elective legislation, to discard all barriers that were
disabling the voting on all of the continents where there are Macedonian
citizen, and to be used before the presidential elections in 2009. The
opposition looks to the offer with a reserve. In SDSM are looking a public
discussion and wide consensus, and DUI is against that. Even in DPA, the
coalition partner of VMRO-DPMNE has no stand for the voting of the Diaspora.

BRITISH HOUSE OF THE LORDS WARNS ON
DANGER FROM BALKANS ISOLATION FROM THE EU
British peers warn on danger from isolation of the Balkan countries due to
EU decision that there should be no further enlargement until institutional
changes had been agreed, MIA's correspondent reported from London.
Lords EU Committee report said that the expansion should continue warning
that the EU could face with "strict selection" among the integration of the
countries of the Western Balkans in the EU or their turning into
protectorate countries.
They added the countries of the western Balkans - Croatia, Macedonia,
Serbia, Bosnia and Albania - were "fragile and fractious" and could return
to sectarian violence without the prospect of EU membership.
The peers said "an artificial 'pause' ... would be destabilising for
applicants and could become a trap from which it would be difficult to
emerge".
All applications should continue to be handled on their merits, in a
measured way, they said.
They recommended that governments should acknowledge that the constitution -
which was rejected by French and Dutch voters in 2005 - will not be adopted
in its current form.
And the perception of countries from the Balkans or the former Soviet Union
as being "poor, politically unstable and ridden by problems of organised
crime" had fuelled opposition.
Lords EU Committee report urged EU leaders, some of whom had their own
"hostile and ambiguous" approach, to champion enlargement. |
