Britania dhe Maqedonia kanë marrëdhënie diplomatike nga viti 1993. Me rastin e 25 vjetorit e pyetëm Goran Mihajlovskin për kujtimet e tij mbi fillimin e miqësisë britaniko-maqedonase.

I spent Macedonia’s Independence Day climbing Bushava mountain, a stunningly beautiful peak near Krushevo with 360-degree views.

Earlier this week I had my first one-to-one meeting with Zoran Zaev since he became Prime Minister of Macedonia. It had been delayed by a week because of what we call ‘purdah’, the election-related silence in which British civil servants are not allowed to say anything which might influence voting or government formation.

Мојот одговор е секогаш ист – Британија ќе ја напушти Европската Унија, но ние не ја напуштаме Европа. Сакам оваа порака да ја донесам на мојата […]
