Swedish Minister for EU Affairs Cecilia Malmstrom arrived in Macedonia on Monday to assess the country’s progress in the EU integration process. At the meeting with Ivica Bocevski, Macedonian Deputy Prime Minister in charge of EU Integration, Malmstrom stated that Sweden would unreservedly support full liberalization of the visa regime with Macedonia. She emphasized that Sweden considers the name dispute between Macedonia and Greece a bilateral issue that is not a formal condition for accession to the European Union.
