What
they
failed
to
do
as
government,
they
will
try
to
achieve
as
opposition,
Gosev
says
Macedonian
Information
Agency
(Apr
20,
2003,
7:00:08
PM
(GMT+01:00)) (MIA) -
Economy
Minister
Petar
Gosev
has
been
criticizing
the
Democratic
Party
of
Albanians
(DPA)
and
VMRO-DPMNE
because
they
do
not
give
up
their
ideas
for
ethnic
cleansing.
Gosev's
statement
is
the
first
reaction
of
a
government
representative
after
yesterday's
DPA
announcements
for
a
possibility
of
new
conflicts
and
creation
of
ethnically
clean
states,
and
the
column
of
Ljubco
Georgievski,
the
leader
of
the
opposition
party
VMRO-DPMNE,
published
in
daily
"Dnevnik",
who
offers
solution
for
an
ethically
clean
Macedonia.
"We
have
all
witnessed
how
they
worked
together
with
Georgievski
on
dividing
the
country.
Their
moves
were
rather
convincing.
They
failed
to
complete
the
work,
but
it
is
obvious
that
they
do
not
intend
to
give
up
those
ideas
...They
will
have
no
other
chance
to
realize
their
ideas
for
ethnic
cleansing
-
their
fascist
philosophy
for
closing
into
ethnic
ghettos.
Their
concepts
will
not
turn
into
reality,
Gosev
said
at
the
sidelines
of
a
meeting
of
Macedonia's
economists
in
Ohrid.
Leader
of
the
opposition
party
DPA
Arben
Xhaferi
announced
that
Macedonia
would
face
new
conflicts,
as
it
has
not
been
working
on
implementing
of
the
Framework
Agreement,
only
few
days
after
publishing
of
the
column
of
Georgiveski,
who
also
considers
that
the
agreement
is
dead.
"I
will
appeal
to
the
international
community
to
establish
a
protectorate
in
Macedonia,
more
efficient
than
the
Kosovo
one,"
the
Macedonian
Television
quoted
Xhaferi's
statement
for
the
media
in
Albanian
language.
VMRO-DPMNE
and
DPA
were
coalition
partners
in
the
Macedonian
government
in
1998-2002.
Due
to
dissatisfaction
with
the
policy
for
the
agreement
implementation,
DPA
parliamentarians
would
not
attend
parliamentary
sessions,
the
party
decided
at
yesterday's
meeting
of
its
Central
Assembly.
In
the
column,
published
in
"Dnevnik",
Georgievski
says
that
one
of
the
solutions
is
convening
of
an
international
conference
on
the
Balkans,
at
which
the
agreement
(he
has
offered
in
his
column)
is
to
be
confirmed.
"The
Ohrid
agreement
is
dead.
The
new
government
has
not
fulfil
anything
and
Macedonia
will
be
destabilized...
It
will
also
face
a
"social
explosion",
DPA
deputy
president
Menduh
Thaci
said.
Yesterday,
Xhaferi
and
Thaci
offered
to
resign
from
the
DPA
leadership.
"All
multiethnic
countries
are
ruined,
and
creating
of
ethnic
countries
is
the
only
option
that
may
function.
We
shall
work
very
hard
and
seek
support
for
this
idea,"
Thaci
said.
Georgievski
on
the
other
hand,
offers
solutions
for
ethnically
clean
Macedonia
in
his
column,
published
in
Friday's
"Dnevnik",
saying
that
Albanians
do
not
wish
to
live
together
with
Macedonians.
He
suggests
displacing
of
Albanians
from
Skopje,
Kumanovo,
Kicevo
and
Struga
by
exchange
of
financial
means
and
properties.
Georgi
Efremov
-
member
of
the
Macedonian
Academy
of
Science
and
Art,
promoted
an
idea
for
voluntarily
exchange
of
territories
in
June
2001.
Few
days
latter
he,
who
was
the
Academy
president
than,
resigned
from
his
post.
Georgievski's
final
draft-solution,
presented
in
his
column,
is
building
of
concrete
wall
that
will
physically
divide
Albanians
from
Macedonians,
if
Albanian
parties
refuse
a
proposal,
composed
of
eight
theses.
"Macedonian
national
council
(a
body
that
is
yet
to
be
established)
should
define
a
dividing
line
and
build
a
concrete
wall,
by
coping
the
project
from
Israel,"
Georgievski
says
in
his
column.
On
August
13,
2001,
the
Framework
Agrement
was
signed
in
Skopje,
putting
an
end
to
the
seven-month
conflict
in
Macedonia
between
the
paramilitary
NLA
of
Albanians
and
the
Macedonian
security
forces.
Ljubco
Georgievski,
Arben
Xhaferi,
Branko
Crvenkovski
and
Imer
Imeri,
as
well
as
Macedonian
President
Boris
Trajkovski,
were
the
agreement
signatories.
Ruling
party
SDSM
criticized
Georgievski's
suggestion,
asking
VMRO-DPMNE
members
to
distance
themselves
from
the
"anachronous
and
dangers"
statements
of
their
leader,
while
the
Democratic
Union
for
Integration
said
that
Georgievski's
visions
are
"last
century's
recipe."
Last
August
at
a
rally
in
Kumanovo,
Thaci
called
on
reconciliation
of
Albanians
and
Macedonians.
After
signing
of
the
Ohrid
agreement,
Xhaferi
said
he
would
urge
"Albanians
to
send
only
good
messages
to
Macedonians.
