Prof. Dragi Georgiev, co-chair of the Bulgarian-Macedonian commission on historical issues on the North Macedonia side has requested that its work be frozen.
Prof. Georgiev says he does not accept the “common history” formula which is part of the 2017 agreement of friendship and goodneighbourhood. In an interview with Telma TV he stated that for 70 years Skopje has been in conflict with Bulgaria over history and that “freezing the work of the commission could allow other things to move forward”. Prof. Georgiev adds that the joint celebration of voivode Gotse Delchev is a political decision, not a decision by the commission.
