The President of the Jewish community in Macedonia Berta Romano Nikolic, has told the BGNES Agency that this visit by Borissov is a significant event not only for members of the Jewish community but also for all citizens of Macedonia. He pointed out that in Bulgaria people are now more frequently talking not only about saving the Jews but also about the deportation of Jews from these lands.
