In the backdrop of ongoing debates in the parliament on the occasion of the no-confidence vote, protesting citizens called for the resignation of the ministers from the cabinet of Kiril Petkov. The protest was organized by political forces and civic groups that are dissatisfied with the country's low standard of living, high fuel prices and the policy on North Macedonia's EU accession bid. The representatives of VMRO are also in front of the building of the National Assembly, as their message to the MPs is "Do not betray Macedonia." There are checkpoints at key crossroads near the parliament as well as fences in front of the building itself.

“Vazrazhdane” party activists from across the country are expected to join the protest later this afternoon.
