We cannot make more concessions, caretaker Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Dimitar Glavchev told journalists, commenting the election results in North Macedonia and the European path of the former Yugoslav republic. Glavchev called for patience until it becomes clear what the composition of the new government in Skopje would be. 

"I hope they will continue their European perspective. Our country cannot make more concessions. Our position is European. It is clear to our friends that if they do not comply with the requirements for EU membership, it will not happen," Glavchev said. 

The caretaker Prime Minister participated in a ceremony for raising the EU flag on the occasion of Europe Day in front of the presidential institution.
