Skopje said on July 30 that it is looking into allegations of a cyberattack from North Macedonia on the Venezuelan elections. Venezuelan Attorney General Tarek William Saab blamed North Macedonia for a cyberattack that delayed vote-counting in the highly controversial reelection of President Nicolas Maduro, whose opposition candidate also declared victory. The Ministry of Digital Transformation in North Macedonia is not an investigative body, but Minister Stevan Andonovski said he “will make sure that no one is accused in the country without evidence for it and that we are not involved in the internal political battles of an authoritarian regime that has existed for years in that country.” To read the original story on RFE/RL’s North Macedonian Service, click here.
