Macedonia: Greek socialists want elections postponement due to NATO summit
Greek socialists asked for postponement of the early parliamentary elections due to the NATO summit in Chicago, where Macedonia’s accession in the Alliance will be present in meeting’s agenda, writes Macedonian Dnevnik daily.
PASOK leader Evangelos Venizelos said that the elections should be held in June instead of May, because they should not be organised in times of pressure ahead of the Chicago summit.
Dnevnik comments that the question is whether Venizelos takes advantage of the name issue to ‘buy some time’ with regard to the fact that his party has lower rating than the New Democracy party.
