Vice President Iliana Iotova said in Varna that it was high time for a meeting between the governments of Bulgaria and North Macedonia and demanded that more serious measures be taken after the latest incident with a citizen with Bulgarian self-awareness. She assessed the handing over of a note to the North Macedonian ambassador as an insufficient action, because there was no development in the case for a change in the constitution of North Macedonia that would include Bulgarians in it.
Iotova recalled that Skopje undertook and failed to fulfill the obligations to change the anti-Bulgarian content in textbooks, as well as to open the files of the services from the communist past. "I don't even dare to think that the new Bulgarian government would back down from the already established Bulgarian position,” the vice president said, BNT reports.
The German Bundestag recognizes the Macedonian culture, identity and language. This is stated in a draft decision of the German Federal Parliament, which will be discussed on June 15 by the MPs in Berlin. The declaration is entitled "Active support for North Macedonia on its path to the EU" and was submitted by the parliamentary groups of the three parties in the ruling coalition. Another key point in the draft document is to call on Bulgaria to stick to North Macedonia's path to the EU outlined by last summer's compromise, "and to refrain from setting additional conditions," dnevnik.bg reports.
