The best way to pay homage to Gotse Delchev is to build the Sofia-Skopje motorway and name it after the revolutionary, North Macedonia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Bujar Osmani said. Asked whether North Macedonia’s authorities knew about Bulgaria’s memorandum to the EU regarding the bilateral relations of the two countries, Minister Osmani said that being an applicant country North Macedonia is not part of the official correspondence between the member states.

Bulgaria already sent a memorandum to the Council of the European Union on North Macedonia’s accession to the EU. Sofia demands that Skopje strictly adheres to the principles and the values of the European Union and the good neighbor agreement signed in 2017.
