The Civil Movement for Defense of Macedonia (GDOM) held on Wednesday evening peaceful gathering in several cities in Macedonia, including Bitola, Stip, Veles, Delcevo, Gevgelija,Tetovo and Prilep.
The Civil Movement for Defense of Macedonia demands that elections be held on June 5 ‘as the only way out of the agony gripping Macedonia’ and that the President Gjorge Ivanov revokes his pardoning decision. “Elections must be held, the people must use their democratic right to decide about their future”, GDOM has said.
All creative people should join forces in order to put an end to destruction and to move forward to a better future, it was noted at a civil gathering on Wednesday evening in downtown Bitola.
“We raise our voice against all the forces fighting to destabilize our country. We want Macedonia to be peaceful, stable and prosperous,” a GDOM member said addressing the gathering.
In Prilep, the police prevented a fight from breaking out between protesters after supporters of the two rival movements, i.e. GDOM and the civil movement #Protestiram (I Protest), started exchanging insults at each other.
