Skopje, 22 January 2024 (MIA) - The Skopje City Council endorsed Monday the decision on allocating subsidies to the public transportation enterprise Skopje (JSP Skopje) in the amount of EUR 11 million for 2024.

Twenty-five out of 45 council members voted 'yes', with no abstentions and 'no' votes.

Earlier today, the Skopje City Council failed to adopt the decision after 22 out of 45 council members voted 'yes', while 13 abstained.

The decision is set to ensure the payment of the December wages for the JSP employees, who have gone on strike and put the city's public transport on hold.

The City of Skopje said after the session that VMRO-DPMNE council members "have again decided to leave citizens without transport and JSP Skopje employees without wages out of spite".
