It
looks like the West is going to give Macedonia a lesson of "democracy,"
noted American writer and researcher Michael Collins, drawing a
parallel between the current situation in the country and dramatic
events which took place in Libya, Syria, and Ukraine.
As usual, the Western corporate media have launched a large-scale campaign aimed against Macedonian authorities, accompanied by a group of tame American NGOs, which immediately joined the chorus together with Macedonia's opposition figures.
Indeed, a well-known US watchdog, the National Endowment for Democracy is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in Macedonia in order to promote "Civic Engagement in Legislative Advocacy and Public Policy Dialogue," while the George Soros funded Open Society Foundation is carrying out "coordinated actions" aimed at forcing the government "to improve accountability and transparency," the writer noted.
Meanwhile, British media – Western propaganda's "heavy artillery" – reported on May, 17 of "tens of thousands" of protesters in Skopje, who have demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski.
"The announcement of Russian pipeline deal
on March 12 put the small nation in the cross hairs of the Obama
administration and Congress. Allowing Russia a backdoor to sell Europe
natural gas challenged the economic and political war against Russia.
The US and its puppet governments in London, Paris, and Berlin give lip
service to free markets. But, when it comes to Russia, political goals
trump commerce," the researcher underscored.
Macedonia's
Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski was accused of taking bribes, shortly
after the Russo-Macedonian deal had been announced.
However, "the press failed to mention that corruption has been a
mainstay of Macedonian politics since independence in 1991. Even if
true, the charges are just more of the same," Michael Collins
highlighted.As usual, the Western corporate media have launched a large-scale campaign aimed against Macedonian authorities, accompanied by a group of tame American NGOs, which immediately joined the chorus together with Macedonia's opposition figures.

"Like serpents in a swamp, the NGOs lay in wait
for any signs of deviation from the projects of the US financial and
political elite," the researcher elaborated with unconcealed sarcasm.
Furthermore, Albania's Foreign Ministry has also raised its voice
against Skopje, slamming the Macedonian authorities for police brutality
towards Albanian extremists, who attacked the police on May 9, 2015
in the city of Kumanovo.Meanwhile, British media – Western propaganda's "heavy artillery" – reported on May, 17 of "tens of thousands" of protesters in Skopje, who have demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski.
"There's a simple goal for the latest democracy
festival in Macedonia. It's the same goal as its recent predecessors
in Libya, Syria, and Ukraine," Michael Collins pointed out, "to bring
[the country] some serious democracy."
Western elites have sent a clear message to Skopje and to other
regimes which demonstrate "disobedience" to Washington and Brussels,
saying: "cooperate or else," the writer concluded.
