A date for the visit has not been set. There was no official statement from the Bulgarian side after the conversation in Sofia, BTA and BGNES report.
"The inclusion of Bulgarians in the constitution of North Macedonia does not depend on me. If I were an absolute monarch, I would say that I would change the constitution," Gordana Siljanovska-Davkova said. In order to start negotiations for EU membership, the Republic of North Macedonia must change the Constitution and include the Bulgarians in it. This is part of the negotiating framework that has been approved by all EU countries.
"Regarding Corridor №8, this is a matter that concerns the government. Anything that connects us is welcome." This is how the North Macedonian president commented on the calls of authorities in Skopje to block the construction of a highway and a railway connection between Bulgaria and the former Yugoslav republic.
