“Bulgaria’s Prime Minister Boyko Borissov was the first to set in motion all of this support we received for our Euro-Atlantic integration. The message he conveyed was: We were helped by Europe, now we shall help the neighbours,” said the Foreign Minister of Macedonia Nikola Dimitrov at a meeting with his Bulgarian counterpart and Deputy Prime Minister Ekaterina Zaharieva. The two met in Bucharest at the EU foreign ministers’ meeting.

“We have achieved a lot in one year, but there is still a lot of work ahead. We first have to repair the roads, the rail links, to promote cultural exchange,” said Deputy Prime Minister Zaharieva. “Together we have attained a new spirit in our relations. Thank you for being the first to recognize our country, now you were the first to mandate the signing of our NATO accession protocol,” Nikola Dimitrov said.
