The long-term Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski agreed in 2016 to resign after being accused of corruption. The following parliamentary elections made the formation of a new government and more consensual neighborhood relations with Bulgaria and Greece possible. The conclusion of the Prespa Agreement with Greece in 2018 brought an end to the dispute on the country\u2019s name and also enabled the agreement on North Macedonia\u2019s NATO accession in 2019.\n\nIn the same year however, the European Council could not agree on starting the EU-accession negotiations with #NorthMacedonia and Albania that led to deep disappointment. Early parliamentary elections were proclaimed that finally did not take place due to the necessary COVID-19 restrictions. Meanwhile neither a concrete timeline for starting the EU-accession talks, after the green light given by the member states this March, nor a next date for the parliamentary elections is fixed. The political polarization has been additionally heated up by challenges in the health care and economic situation, while Gruevski \u2013 instead of being legally sentenced \u2013 enjoys political asylum in Hungary. Questions that arise are, amongst others: Can we expect that the parliamentary elections will be scheduled in July or September? Which narratives might then be the most dominant? Will the Social Democrats under Zoran Zaev hold their governmental position? Is Gruevski going to play an important role in the elections? To what extent have North Macedonia\u2019s neighborhood relations to Greece, Bulgaria and Albania changed, especially after its NATO accession? What are the effects of inter-ethnic relations to daily life? And finally, which further steps are to expect regarding North Macedonia\u2019s EU accession process? \n\nAll that questions and the seemingly upside-down situation we appreciate to discuss with the well-known political analyst Petar Arsovski.","custom_imageurl":"","custom_title":"","custom_description":"","specialparams":"","lastupdate":"2020-05-26 12:14:34","allowupdates":"1","status":"200","isvideo":"1","link":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=857kj3cIcbs","ordering":"10036","publisheddate":"2020-05-25 11:22:41","duration":"0","rating_average":"0","rating_max":"0","rating_min":"0","rating_numRaters":"0","statistics_favoriteCount":"0","statistics_viewCount":"0","keywords":"CEE,SEE,coronavirus,IDMonSite,COVID-19,IDM,European Union,Albania,Enlargement,Weastern Balkans,Zagreb Summit,North Macedonia,elections","startsecond":"0","endsecond":"0","likes":"0","dislikes":"1","commentcount":"0","channel_username":"","channel_title":"","channel_subscribers":"0","channel_subscribed":"0","channel_location":"","channel_commentcount":"0","channel_viewcount":"0","channel_videocount":"0","channel_description":"","channel_totaluploadviews":"0","alias":"idmonsite-petar-arsovski","rawdata":"","datalink":"https:\/\/www.googleapis.com\/youtube\/v3\/videos?id=857kj3cIcbs&part=id,snippet,contentDetails,statistics&key=AIzaSyAuacZl-IRz0fqVbaL1InRHT5Wnuj9Z7dI"},{"id":"108","listid":"3","parentid":"60","videosource":"youtube","videoid":"4AD-0c0jBmY","imageurl":"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/4AD-0c0jBmY\/default.jpg,https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/4AD-0c0jBmY\/mqdefault.jpg,https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/4AD-0c0jBmY\/hqdefault.jpg,https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/4AD-0c0jBmY\/sddefault.jpg,https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/4AD-0c0jBmY\/maxresdefault.jpg","title":"IDMonSite - Rudina Lula","description":"We will take a closer look to the actual situation in #Albania, a country that has been - before the global Covid-19 crisis \u2013 hit by an enormous #earthquake in November 2019 and later by another one in January 2020.\u00a0The #EU has promised a support of 1 billion EUR for the reconstruction and showed to be prepared for starting the EU negotiations with Albania and North Macedonia.
