For Our Macedonia (abbr. ZNAM, lit. 'I Know'; Macedonian: За наша Македонија, romanized: Za nasha Makedonija) is a political party in North Macedonia founded by former SDSM member and current mayor of Kumanovo Maksim Dimitrievski.
Ideology
Maksim Dimitrievski describes his views as socially and economically left-wing, but nationally right of centre.[1]
Dimitrievski said that the main goal of his party would be to unite citizens and return the country to the right path, "to the foundations of our statehood". The party's goal, he said, is not to be in opposition, but to win power, and the first step from this position will be the abolition of the Criminal Code, adopted under the "European flag".[2]
Dimitrievski said his movement could attract both SDSM and VMRO-DPMNE supporters, "but most of them will be undecided citizens who have not been involved in politics and have results to show for their work".[2]
History
On 9 October 2023, the founding congress of the ZNAM party was held. At the congress, representatives of 10 civic associations signed the initiative to form a party.[2][3][4][5][6] Maksim Dimitrievski was elected president, and Katerina Todoroska and Emil Janeski were appointed as part of the working Presidency.[7]
On 23 December 2023, the registration of the ZNAM party was completed.[8]
The movement has announced its intention to participate in the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections.[9][10]
