A fight between Macedonian lawmakers took place during a debate in the parliamentary Committee on European Affairs, BGNES reported.

The incident happened in the late afternoon. Commission Chairman Arber Ademi started throwing coffee cups at lawmakers.

The main opposition slammed the government on Thursday for the lack of information on the ongoing talks between Greece and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), following statements of the country's former foreign minister.

After formally accepting the resignation of long-standing opposition leader Nikola Gruevski on Sunday night, Macedonia's main opposition right-wing VMRO-DPMNE party is set to elect his successor from several possible contestants. The extraordinary congress is scheduled for December 22-23.

The opposition VMRO DPMNE party has begun what appears to be a campaign of no-confidence motions in parliament, although they are not likely to succeed, as the Social Democrats and their ruling coalition partners hold a small but solid majority among the 120 MPs.

VMRO DPMNE leader Nikola Gruevski's New Year "mega interview" for the news portal Republika - in which he accused the Foundation Open Society - Macedonia, FOOM, of plotting to topple his government in the name of "foreign interests", naming US Billionaire George Soros as the alleged mastermind - has heated up Macedonia's media and social networks.

After marathon talks, Macedonia's political parties have agreed on the appointment of a special prosecutor who will be tasked with investigating the illegal surveillance claims that have rocked the government.

"A deal was reached. We have a prosecutor," Antonio Milososki, from the negotiating team of the ruling VMRO DPMNE party, tweeted on Tuesday morning.

While Athens and Skopje are working towards a solution on the long-standing name dispute between the two countries, the former foreign minister and current Vice President of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), Antonio Milososki, is continuing to provoke Greece.

A group of Macedonian legislators from the parliamentary commission responsible for oversight of the secret police spent two hours at their headquarters on Tuesday but did not raise the illegal surveillance issue.

The mountain-climbing vice-president of fYRoM’s Parliament, Antonio Milososki, again provoked Greece on Monday by showing a photo of himself at the Naselba Caska site with the flag of the Vergina Sun.

The opposition Social Democrats' leader Zoran Zaev on Saturday presented what he said were taped recordings of officials that expose Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski's hypocrisy over Skopje's bitter dispute with Greece, which claims the name Macedonia as its own.
