Madeleine Albright: Bulgarian Veto on North Macedonia EU Accession Negotiation Is Tragedy
And a couple of words from the Americans:
"The question asked by the commission’s future chairman, Democrat Gregory Meeks, read: “Bulgaria is blocking Northern Macedonia over ethnic and language issues, following Greek name considerations. Bulgaria is questioning Macedonian identity and language. How can the Biden-Harris administration working with our allies in Brussels to ensure that the neighbors of the Western Balkan countries hoping to join the EU do not keep them in the waiting room? “
I have been working for so long on the name of what is now called “Northern Macedonia.” When I was at the UN, we called it FYROM, the “Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,” and no one knew what we were talking about. it was worked very hard, “Albright replied. “In many ways, it is a tragedy that Bulgarians, for their own internal reasons, are doing this now. This question must be raised (before the US allies in Brussels, ed. Note) – how do they fulfill their obligations as a member state? that it is a very important issue that undermines our overall efforts in the Balkans – to achieve economic and political cooperation. “
