The last parliamentary elections in the Republic of Macedonia resulted

in almost equal number of members in the parliament between the

coalitions led by the biggest op-position and position party.This close

result was an initiative for different interpretations of the constitutional

regulations regarding the mandate to form a new government and in

case if the mandator does not succeed in forming a government in the

constitutionally provided period. Especially the second part of the

previous question attracts an interest why hasn`t the Macedonian

constitution have foreseen that situation. This article will make a

summary of the opinions of adequate experts; it will analyze the

established practice; it will analyze in detail the highest Macedonian

legal act and it will compare it to the constitutions of Serbia and Croatia

(in the part of government election). On the basis of the previously said

reaction be in the concrete situation, something that can influence the

creation of the new and of any other future government in the Republic

of Macedonia.
