During his working visit to Brussels, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Macedonia Dimitar Kovacevski met with members of the European Parliament, members of the parliamentary group of the Social Democrats.

The meeting, attended by Deputy Prime Minister for European Affairs Bojan Maricic, focused on the situation in Ukraine and Macedonia’s full compliance with EU foreign and security policy, condemning the military aggression in this country, as well as in relation to sanctions against the Russian Federation.

MEPs also showed interest in the challenges facing Macedonia in dealing with the consequences of the war that caused the economic and energy crisis.

The anti-crisis measures and policies of the Government regarding these issues were recognized as progressive and developmental, and as measures that protect the standard of citizens.

Prime Minister Kovacevski also met with the chair of the group of social democratic parties in the European Parliament Iratxe Garcia Perez, where strong support for our efforts to establish a meaningful dialogue with Bulgaria was expressed.

That commitment, it was assessed, is a testimony to Macedonia’s commitment to European values and the European vision of the country as the only way that will bring a dignified solution in the interest of the citizens of both countries.
