The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of North Macedonia has come out with a statement condemning the video published last night on social networks, which shows young people burning the Bulgarian flag, Macedonian media reported, quoted by BTA. 
The video was published by the youth organization of VMRO-DPMNE party in Gazi Baba municipality. 
The ministry statements says it was a cheap and unsuccessful attempt to provoke hatred between citizens of the two countries. 
The Foreign Ministry in Skopje has stated that it "strongly condemns any act of desecration of any national symbols, including the symbols of the neighbouring Republic of Bulgaria, as well as any other form of hatred that does not correspond to the underlying relations between the two countries."
