Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski stressed Monday that Macedonia was taking diplomatic activities for resolution of the name issue. He explained that in this context were also Foreign Minister Milososki’s letter to the EU and the public appeal to mediator Matthew Nimetz to put forward a new proposal as soon as possible.

The Macedonian ambassadors to the EU member countries received instructions from Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki to reinforce diplomatic activities so that the country may be given a green light from the European Council for opening membership negotiations. The Summit of the European Council will take place on 16-17 December.
