The Minister of Foreign Affairs of North Macedonia, Bujar Osmani, said that the proposal to include the Bulgarian community in the Constitution did not contradict the interests of Skopje. According to Osmani, his country has never had problems recognizing different ethnic groups and that they have the opportunity to express their identity. "I think that Bulgaria is changing its primary irrational position for one nation in two countries to the position that there is a Bulgarian community with different characteristics from those of the majority," Osmani said.

Yesterday, at the European Union-Western Balkans summit in Slovenia ,Bulgarian President Rumen Radev pointed out that Sofia and Skopje were working on a bilateral protocol in which Bulgaria calls for written guarantees that North Macedonia is fulfilling the 2017 agreement on friendship and good neighborliness.
