(AP Photo/Boris Grdanoski) The Associated Press Associated Press Macedonia's four main political leaders failed to make any progress in talks Monday aimed at resolving the crisis that has roiled the country for months. Opposition leader Zoran Zaev of the Social Democrats said the impasse will not be solved until the conservative government resigns and a caretaker government is formed to organize a fair, transparent election. The meeting, organized by Western diplomats, was attended by Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski, Zaev and two ethnic Albanian political leaders: Ali Ahmeti, head of a junior governing coalition partner and Menduh Thaci, leader of an opposition party. Macedonia faces one of its deepest political crises since gaining independence from Yugoslavia in 1991, stemming from opposition claims that the government illegally wire-tapped 20,000 people. On Sunday, tens of thousands of people held an anti-government protest outside the government building in Skopje. Hundreds remained there Monday. |
