The issue of Northern Macedonia is hurting us, Prime Minister Edi Rama complained
Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama complained in an interview with France 24 that his country was facing difficulties on its way to starting EU accession talks because of bilateral problems between Bulgaria and the Republic of Northern Macedonia.
“We are in a really absurd situation. At the moment, Albania is suffering damage due to the dispute between Bulgaria and Northern Macedonia, despite the green light we received from the European Commission,” Rama was quoted as saying by BGNES. “Neither France nor Germany have the power to influence Bulgaria … This makes the process even more complicated, because an issue arises between us and the European Union, which is a bilateral one between Bulgaria and Northern Macedonia,” the Albanian prime minister added.
Rama added that there is still no talk of lasting peace in the Balkans, as there are still conflicts to be resolved, especially between Serbia and Kosovo.
