Sofia and Skopje signed three memoranda at the second day of the visit of North Mcedonian government in Bulgaria.

“Bulgaria will not change the members of the Joint commission for historical and educational issues. They will meet more often with their counterparts from North Macedonia", Bulgarian Prime Minister Kiril Petkov said.

“Macedonian Bulgarians will be added to North Macedonia’s constitution as nation-building people. However, this will not happen soon, because the current government does not have the constitutional majority to pass this bill in Parliament”, North Macedonia's Premier Dimitar Kovachevski said.
