Fani Karanfilova-Panovska, vice president of the SDSM, said on Telma TV’s “Top Tema” program that Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski gave false information during today’s oversight hearing on Alta Bank in Parliament. She said he had tried to evade political responsibility for the bank’s entry into North Macedonia.
“During today’s oversight hearing, Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski had the audacity to tell a blatant lie as a witness at this public hearing,” Karanfilova-Panovska said.

She said Mickoski had tried to shift responsibility onto the previous SDSM government, citing relevant government documents. However, she said, the contents of those documents show the opposite of what the prime minister claimed.
Karanfilova-Panovska stressed that the decision made by the SDSM government was intended to protect the country’s national interests and those of its citizens. She described Mickoski’s statement as a direct attempt to deceive, made publicly in front of the chair of the oversight hearing, MPs and citizens.
The SDSM vice president called on the Public Prosecutor’s Office to respond, noting that in previous cases, witnesses who had given false statements at oversight hearings had faced prosecutorial proceedings.
