Macedonia Opposition Looks Closer to Forming Govt (Balkan Insight)
Macedonia's Social Democrats look closer to forming a government after the key ethnic Albanian party hinted that it would reveal its decision on whether to support it by Friday.
After a meeting on Wednesday night, the Democratic Union for Integration, DUI, confirmed that one key obstacle to backing a new opposition Social Democrat-led government - a new law extending the use of the Albanian language - had been removed.
The party said that in general it now accepted the draft language law previously ironed out with the Social Democrats, SDSM, and that only minor issues remain to be settled with the SDSM before a decision is passed.
The DUI, which has insisted on the new law, did not give any details on what had been agreed with the SDSM.
