Skopje, 3 March 2023 (MIA) - The constitutional changes are not in the citizens' heads, they are only in the heads of several politicians and even they don't believe this is a good thing, said VMRO-DPMNE leader Hristijan Mickoski on Friday.

Mickoski was asked to comment the proposal of First Deputy PM Artan Grubi that the opposition party first supports the constitutional revision and then to hold early elections.

"I would not comment neither the proposal nor the person who presented it. We had a proposal of our own - to hold elections without a caretaker government in place, let's change the law and go to elections at once. Let's not waste time," said Mickoski.

According to him, the constitutional changes are not a priority for the citizens and aren't even mentioned.

"If you ask the citizens about their priorities, they will list at least 15 and will not even mention the constitutional changes if you don't bring them up," said Mickoski.

He said the constitutional changes exist only in the heads of several politicians "and even they don't believe this is a good thing".

"They believe that if they push the process of constitutional changes it will save their political careers. Every politician and lawmaker should know that the constitutional changes are not there to incorporate a part of the Bulgarian people in the Constitution preamble but to save the political careers of Artan Grubi, Ali Ahmeti, Dimitar Kovachevski, Bojan Marichikj and others. This has nothing to do with Europe but with crime and money they steal from the people," added Mickoski.
