Supporters of the VMRO party and two of the party's co-chairs, Angel Dzhambazki and Aleksandar Sidi, besieged the home of Prime Minister Kiril Petkov. They insisted on talking to Petkov and seeing the documents on the so-called French proposal on the accession of the Republic of North Macedonia to the EU. 

Representatives of the party point out that they have repeatedly tried unsuccessfully to meet with Kiril Petkov and the Foreign Minister, which have remained unanswered so far. So they decided to wait for the prime minister in front of his house to talk to him. 
VMRO members also call for a meeting of the parliamentary committee on foreign policy.
