Debate: (De)legitimacy – as the trigger early elections.


Institute for Policy Research and Good Governance held today (Tuesday) debate on the subject “(De)

legitimacy – as the trigger early elections. “

The debate panelists participated Imer Ismaili, Alajdin Demir, Rashid Naim Pristina, Naser Zyberi Lura

Pollozhani and Azzam Ameen.

University professor and expert on the legal system Imer Ismaili estimates that tendency to take

legitimacy Albanian party that won legally in this election constitutes a trend that leads to

conflict.

The assessment was given in the debate held on the topic “(De) legitimacy – as the trigger early elections”,

organized by the Institute for Policy Research and Good Governance.

Professor, explaining the difference between legality and legitimacy, says that the latter can not be contested,

because legitimacy is always on the concept of legality.

Ismail says that the winner can not be contested in regular elections, despite contesting and irregularities

possible.

In this case, the professor says that the legal and political system in Macedonia, the party that has legitimacy

representation is what has earned at least one vote more than the other party.

Statements regarding the Albanian opposition to be part of the government, despite the fact that no gain in

these choices, the professor makes a parallel with the events of 1989.

“This situation reminds me of 1989 created when Rahman Morina with a couple of his friends wanted to Albanian

politically represent biological Kosovo Albanians. Good fortune and know they suffered. The same scenario awaits

those who want to minimize the legitimacy of the party which won in these elections, will suffer the same fate

Rahman Morina, “said Professor Ismail.

In his presentation, the professor also referred SDSM decision not to recognize the results.

He said that SDSM has the right to dispute it, the fact that the electoral register fictitious voters still includes

and no longer living, but this should give arguments yet, that will legitimize the legal right to

contestation of legitimacy.

Political analyst and former Zyberi Nasser said in his presentation that the topic of legitimacy is driven by the action of

current prime minister, who, according to the analyst, seeks to put in place the interests of his close results

elections.

The analyst says that this concern follows news that Gruevski is trying to develop parallel negotiations with both parties

Albanian, and evaluates this position as harmful to the state and its stability, as well as processes

integration.

“Winning parties have full legitimacy to negotiate and create new cabinet. Any action

Another takes heavy toll. Why have elections within the Albanians, when Gruevski will win the elections and

will choose which will get into government. The purpose of the multiparty system of government lies in creating the

legitimacy. Action against does lose the meaning of the Albanian race. This brings us back and Macedonia

The former turns in times of conflict, “said Zymberi.

Further, commenting on the statements of the Macedonian intellectuals that demands require DUI federalism

State analyst said exactly exclusion of this party, which won the elections, will lead to federalism.
“If you get them right Albanians elect representatives that will represent them then must go

on the mountain, or in other forms of pressure to change the political system of Macedonia. We know that this

hardly changed system, “said Zymberi.

Analyst and former ambassador Alajdin Demir says elections, in general, are neither legitimate nor

Legal, because, according to him, are executed in time when they were not expected.

The analyst estimates that early elections, which were third this time on, there followed a political crisis

and that the Macedonian opposition should boycott them because they were imposed.

Demir says that the government felt strong and was confident of victory, and that went to the polls without

responsibility for any previous crisis.

“The first crisis is that membership in NATO and the EU, but not VMRO took over. It showed that not

intends to join but to leave. No one asks of Macedonia undone, but requires

resolved a context that is real. The second is the economic crisis, despite the fact that power is not declared

crisis. Surprisingly, their real investment, they forgot. The third crisis is the crisis of investment. In Macedonia

trends kriminogjen finding partners. Subrata Roy is the best example, “the analyst said.

He adds that, society and ethnic crisis, and now it also adds to the political.

Demir says it must build system to achieve social and political consensus, and that, in the absence of

His parties can not reach agreement on their disputes.

Analyst from the International Crisis Group, Rashid Naim Pristina, estimates that failure to

name dispute has “occupied” space policy issues, despite many who are without solutions.

The analyst says that, in case of dispute resolution, the parties will debate on other topics that will lead the country

before.

It analyzes the regional and international context of Macedonia, and notes that there is a shutdown

this aspect.

“Closing the regional context in terms of comparison in relation to others. This shutdown is causing

also a kind of political and social closure degradation within the country. Spoken clearly that Macedonia is a

among the few places that makes regression in all areas. In Macedonia concluded that there was regression in many

areas, “said the analyst.

He notes that, especially noted standoff freedoms, including that of the media which, according to him, is flooded

hate speech.

“All these rank Macedonia standoff between countries with high potential ethnic conflict,” Rashid said.

The analyst also said that it is surprising how little impact they have had negotiations between Serbia and

Kosovo.

“Very few reflects this issue in the context of Macedonia and less willing to take these practices.

It saddens me how little there is will and energy, as hesitation in particular by Albanian parties to affect

legal constitutional changes for the future of the country. How to get out of this crisis? I still consider as

part of a negotiating maneuver. I also see a reduction in ambition for the EU and NATO, little is

Speaking particularly of VMRO, “the analyst said.

Publicist and former newspaper publisher FACT, Azzam Ameen began his speech with the impression that the current developments

show a tendency to return back and said, is not clear as to who fits this setback.

Publicist says that Macedonia needs at least this negative process, and praised the Macedonian party

Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski, Macedonian public terrorizing blackmail by political actors

Albanians.

He compared the government talks about building as a kind of auction rules, as he said, upside down.

“In that case he gives me little he earns. Who needs a minority Albanian party that is? And come on

a conflict of legitimacy. Albanians have shown a willingness to understand the legitimacy of the Macedonians.

But if the blackmail Macedonians and Albanians legitimacy. This produces a conflict of legitimacy conflict “

publicist says.

He thinks that the Albanian parties should determine the rules of operation and not allowed the formation of

government of parties that have two or three seats.

“Albanians are not yet come to a genuine opposition. A leadership that has to do with democracy, but

no ordinary personal interests. It is time to form a genuine opposition to work tomorrow never comes

I mentioned to the auction. Another issue not mentioned yet is the fact that, officially, not mandated

there, “said publicist.

He notes that talks on forming a government, should have more transparency for speculation

circulating in the media can damage them.
Political science researcher, Lura Pollozhani said that discussion is redundant if the Albanian political factor

should be part of government.

She considers dangerous tendency not to take into account the will of the Albanians, and says that,

this may increase distrust in government institutions and in the future.

“This should not exist if we want to build a multi-ethnic state. One thing to worry, that

Political parties only open debates in the electoral campaign. The rhetoric has been very ethnic nationalist, this I

set drops all other debates are out of focus, “said Pollozhani

She says, the debate over the legitimacy is harmful, because it leaves room for debate on the crisis that are

real.

“We are still talking about some basic things, such as the legitimacy of the vote, the real things like NATO

and the EU has an interest that is decreasing, “said Pollozhani.

The question of journalists:

In the debate on the (de) legitimacy, organized by the Institute for Policy Research and Good Governance,

panelists stated in the question whether Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski has the right to invite both

Albanian parties.

Naser Zyberi analyst said that Gruevski’s goal is not taking the two parties in government, but requires only

reduction requirements DUI.

He compared the current moment with government formation in 1998, the PDP refused conditions

VMRO-DPMNE and the latter took on how to share the DPA.

“Nikola Gruevski tendency is to reduce DUI market, saying ‘if you do not want, here I

Another partner ‘. Unfortunately, this has found a partner for Albanians, “the analyst said.

He said that if the option ‘government with two Albanian parties’, and in terms of lack of SDSM, power

next there will be no opposition.
