We discussed how to make NATO stronger, focusing on the collective, while at the same time strengthening the defense of each member country, caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev said. He added that in the discussions in Washington at the summit on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Alliance, the other central topic was support for Ukraine.

In Washington, Glavchev also spoke with North Macedonian Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski. We were of the same opinion that the tension in communication should be reduced, Glavchev said. Relations between the two countries should be normalized and return to the track of 2017, when the treaty of good neighborliness was signed. EU membership requirements must be met. Our position is pan-European - EU candidate countries must comply with the requirements that apply to everyone, Glavchev pointed out.
