In Saturday’s interview with TV Kanal 5 VMRO-DPMNE leader Hristijan Mickoski reiterated his position as to who is Goce Delcev, asking Stevo Pendarovski to apologize to the Macedonians for his statement that he was a Bulgarian who fought for independent Macedonia.

I have no dilemma who was Goce Delcev, what he fought for, how his relics ended up where they ended up and how they were returned in 1946t. Therefore, this means that Delcev is a great Macedonian, a revolutionary who fought for an independent, sovereign Macedonian state, said Mickoski.
