We say – YES for Europe and we say NO – for blackmailing the Macedonian people! And NO for blackmailing our fellow Albanians, Turks, Roma, Serbs, Bosniaks, Vlachs and everyone else, Prime Minister Zoran Zaev said on Facebook late last night.

We build friendships. We are a bright example of good neighborliness. We have never caused problems and we will never be the problem. We are the bearers of the solutions. That is our winning attitude. That is why we demand that the EU to fulfill its fundamental obligation and recognize and preserve as an invaluable asset the historical and identity differences of the nations of the European continent. Macedonian identity and language must not be an exception to this principle. We demand that the EU respects, cares and preserves our Macedonian identity, as a treasure of its diversity in the same way as we care, develop and preciously preserve the European identity at home, wrote Zaev.
