"Ex Macedonian PM passed through Serbia on way to Hungary"

The Macedonian Interior Ministry issued the arrest warrant on the evening of Nov. 13.

Speaking for Belgrade-based TV Happy last night, Vucic said that Gruevski left Serbia before the warrant had been issued, and that "arresting him while in transit through Serbia would have been abduction. This is not a wild country, we cannot be arresting anyone (like that)."

Gruevski left Macedonia by entering first Albania, and then Montenegro. At 22:27 hours CET on November 11, he entered Serbia via the Gostun border crossing, and left the country, reaching Hungary via the Horgos border crossing, on November 12, Vucic said.

He added that Serbia "does not have bad relations with Macedonia."

"They are one of the closest nations to us and we are yet to have good relations," said the president.

Asylum

*ALT
On Tuesday, Nov. 20, Albanian agency INA reported that Nikola Gruevski had been granted (political) asylum in Hungary.

The report is based on unofficial findings of Hungarian media, namely, the website 24.hu. Any of this is yet to be officially confirmed.

Meanwhile, the authorities in Skopje said they would on Tuesday file an extradition request for Gruevski, regardless of whether he has (reportedly) been granted asylum.
