By order of Bulgarian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ekaterina Zaharieva, the interim head of the Embassy of North Macedonia in Sofia, Vladimir Krastevski, has been summoned for a conversation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the ministry's press service reported. The reason is frequent manifestations of hate speech and discrimination by officials in North Macedonia against citizens of the country who declare Bulgarian identity.
Bulgaria has also expressed bewilderment and disappointment at the large-scale negative campaign in North Macedonia against the representative of Skopje in the "Eurovision 2021" music contest, Vasil Garvanliev.
