Ischinger: Macedonia’s road to EU and NATO needs to be unblocked


Macedonia’s road to EU and NATO needs to be unblocked, says Munich Security Conference (MSC) chairman, ambassador Wolfgang Ischinger.

“Macedonia’s road to EU and NATO needs to be unblocked – long overdue”, wrote Ischinger’s on Twitter.

The MSC chairman replied to a Twitter post by Foreign Minister Nikola Dimitrov, who said Macedonia has been a model of successful preventive democracy.

“Macedonia has been one of the very few examples of successful preventive diplomacy. But halting a negative dynamic is not enough. It is now time to seize the opportunity, propel positive dynamic and achieve irreversible success,” says Dimitrov and thanks ambassador Ischinger for the excellent organization of the Munich event.

FM Dimitrov and Defense Minister Radmila Sekerinska took part at the 54. Munich Security Conference, which is considered the leading global forum discussing current and future security challenges.
