Northern Macedonia has clear positions in the talks with Bulgaria, built with full governmental unity and sent in response from our MFA to the Bulgarian MFA. “Macedonian identity and the Macedonian language are not a topic of conversation between us and Bulgaria at all,” he said The office of the resigned Prime Minister Zoran Zaev on the views expressed today on the current Deputy Prime Minister for European Integration Nikola Dimitrov.

The reaction points out that the Macedonian positions, which are fully in line with the Portuguese proposal that was adopted by the Slovenian Presidency and which are fully in line with the Resolution adopted by the Assembly, are built through a comprehensive consultation process and working meetings in which Dimitrov had an active and substantive role.

Dimitrov told a news conference today that he had not resigned alone, but that his positions on the dispute with Sofia were the reason he would not be part of the new government.
