The Government of North Macedonia will address the Venice Commission to obtain an urgent opinion regarding the new model of the bar exam, which foresees that the theoretical part will be conducted in Albanian, while the practical part will be conducted in Macedonian.
Minister of Justice, Jeton Shasivari, announced that within the framework of this process, the rapporteurs of the Venice Commission will hold meetings with state institutions, parliamentary parties, deans of five law faculties, as well as representatives of student organizations.
The aim is for this issue to be considered at the last session of the Venice Commission for this year, which is scheduled to be held on December 11 and 12.
The new model of the jurisprudence exam has prompted numerous reactions and opposition from Albanian students, who rose up in protests demanding that the exam be conducted entirely in the Albanian language.
The Albanian opposition in the Republic of Macedonia has also declared itself against this legal solution, warning that it will not support it in the Assembly.
