''Bulgaria and North Macedonia signed a Good Neighbor Agreement, which is part of the EU enlargement plan, and no one can deviate from it, said GERB leader Boyko Borisov, who is also the chairman of the National Assembly Committee on Foreign Policy. ''We need to be patient. All institutions reacted. We should not look aggressive because the tactic of our colleagues from North Macedonia is to make us look guilty'', Boyko Borissov warned, emphasizing that anyone who violates good manners will face consequences.

''It is a normal reaction from Brussels following the latest statements by officials from Skopje. There could be no other reaction. I think it was quite a fair decision'', the chairman of the parliamentary group of BSP Borislav Gutsanov said with regard to Brussels' decision to allow Albania to begin EU membership negotiations, which means decoupling Albania from North Macedonia on their path to the EU.
