"(
) The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia is a good example of a mosaic of interests and ethnicities, not always peaceful or in agreement, that characterises the Balkan region.
All the key political players agree that moving towards the European Union is the best way forward for the country, but there are many obstacles to its membership.
Some of these are of a material nature, while others are more historical or political. The latter kind, one of which is the actual name of the new country, have been causing tensions with the country’s neighbours, particularly Greece, so a serious and persistent collective effort is needed to overcome them.
The stabilisation of the rule of law, regular free and fair elections and the affirmation of democracy in all its aspects, including implementing the principle of subsidiarity and decentralisation, are challenges that lie ahead for the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia if it wishes to persevere with trying to become part of the European Union. I sincerely hope that it will."@en1
