Historians and philologists from the “For Macedonia” national circle presented a memorandum to all countries of the EU today.

The memorandum contains scientific arguments justifying Bulgaria’s position regarding this country’s veto on the Republic of North Macedonia’s EU accession. It also includes concrete examples of hate speech and violation of the goodneighbour agreement by North Macedonia.

A delegation of Bulgarian scholars is to pay a visit to Strasbourg from 6 to 8 June to present the memorandum in an effort to convince MEPs that Bulgaria’s is right to uphold its position. The scholars urged Bulgaria’s politicians to demonstrate leadership and to not back down from the firm position upheld thus far.
