Ljubco Georgievski, chairman of the Bulgarian cultural club "Ivan Mihailov" in Bitola, has been suspected of racism and xenophobia by the prosecutor's office of North Macedonia, BGNES reported. Georgievski is summoned to the prosecutor’s office on December 16 and if he refuses, he will be forcibly brought there, the decision reads.

The Bulgarian club "Ivan Mihailov" was registered 3 years ago, but after the official opening of its building in April 2022, an institutional and media attack was organized in North Macedonia against the management and supporters of the club. Two weeks ago, shots were fired at the Bulgarian club "Tsar Boris III" in Ohrid.
