The three electricity generators earmarked as a donation to border checkpoints of North Macedonia will be sent to Turkey, because the need there is much more acute after the powerful earthquake, caretaker Minister of Interior Ivan Demerdzhiev said.

Not long ago, he promised to donate the generators to North Macedonia after many Bulgarians were unable to cross the border for the celebrations of the birth anniversary of revolutionary Gotse Delchev for hours because of a malfunctioning system. "I hope that the Republic of North Macedonia would find the strength and means to ensure the quality of its border control", the minister added.
