How do we get rid of corruption?


Zdravko Saveski They have abused power for personal benefit. They thought they would hide it from the public, but they failed. They thought they would go away with empty promises and throw crumbs at citizens. They thought they would continue their old ways. But everything was in vain. This story of the fall of the […]

Corruption and capitalists


Zdravko Saveski The public was in great shock over the “Racket” case, and probably over Prosecutor Katica Janeva’s involvement in it. It was clear for quite some time now that the SPO has neither the will nor capacity to do its job, and that it is collaborating with the government. But that did not cause […]

A “marginal” arrest


Zdravko Saveski Last Friday, three protesters were arrested on the sidelines of a public demonstration of firearms held in Skopje, as part of the promotion of the country’s accession to NATO. They were taken to a police station and released quickly after. “Marginal event” would be your first thought. And a marginal event that is […]

The EU – more than just a nice dream?


Zdravko Saveski As expected – we didn’t get a date for starting accession talks with the EU. Zaev, especially before the referendum, reassured us that we will start the accession negotiations with the EU in June this year.

A month ago, we first witnessed the charades when participants in the 2016 protests, and explicit supporters of SDSM, through the initiative called “Na megdan (Duel)”, were reactivated to give wind in Stevo Pendarovski’s back after his […]

The more important things than the presidential election


Zdravko Saveski At the time of writing this column, the results of the first round of the presidential elections were still unknown. But this is not the main reason why I will not waste time on elections on this occasion. The main reason is that May Day is approaching and that presidential elections must not […]

The power of not voting


Zdravko Saveski The people have power! That power is not visible and can not be felt when the people themselves do not reach for it. When this is the case, the rulers lie to the people, steal from the people and lead them by the nose. And the people sink in their poverty and in […]

NATO, NATO, my dear?


Zdravko Saveski And so it happened. They signed the Protocol for NATO membership. Our rulers were happy! And why would they not be, right? The country has been waiting for this moment for more than a quarter of a century! But do we, the people, need to share the joy with the authorities for the […]
