The Parliamentary Commission for European Affairs will set to begin the debate today on the Law for the use of languages. The Law, which stipulates a wider use of the Albanian language has a “European flag” which means it will be passed in a short procedure.
It’s one of the key laws of the ruling coalition which was part of the negotiations between SDSM and the coalition parties from the Albanian group.
-After 16 years, we have managed to reach an inter-ethnic consensus through the parties that represent the Macedonian and the Albanian community, to find a way to adjust the different interpretation of Article 5 from the Constitution and to close the last open issue from the Framework agreement – said recently the VP for European Affairs, Bujar Osmani.
He announced that he will ask for support for the Law from VMRO-DPMNE’s MPs and that will be a good opportunity for the opposition party to “revise its stance against the Albanians.”
