Politicians demand that EU protect the rights of Bulgarians in North Macedonia

Representatives of various political forces call for a pan-European position on the cases of violence against Bulgarians in the Republic of North Macedonia. The reason for the position was the case of the attack on the secretary of the Bulgarian cultural center in Ohrid, Hristiyan Pendikov. 

The Republic of North Macedonia has a problem with the entire EU, said the co-chairman of "We Continue the Change" Asen Vassilev. According to him, the entire European community must protect the rights of Bulgarians in North Macedonia. 
The events of the last few days confirm the position of the Bulgarian Socialist Party not to support the bid for EU membership of the Republic of North Macedonia, said Kristian Vigenin from the left-wing party. 

"We should veto the membership of North Macedonia in the EU, raise the issue of the rights of the Bulgarians in the RSM before the Council of Foreign Ministers of NATO, as well as before the EU", believes the leader of "Vazrazhdane" Kostadin Kostadinov.
