"The Macedonian successful story represents a successful story for NATO too. It emphasizes the potential for normalization of the region. Macedonia is prepared to be an anchor of the international efforts for creating a safe region for prosperous multiethnic democracies. I hope that the allies will recognize this potential through including of Macedonia's progress for membership in their strategy for providing a long term stability of the Balkans," Macedonian PM Vlado Buckovski said in his address before NATO ambassadors in Brussels, the Macedonian Information Agency reports.
He said that Macedonia as a partner and a candidate for the NATO membership strongly supported the idea for organizing the Alliance Summit in Riga in November.
"Macedonia will continue to respond on the challenges of the transformation and the Euro-Atlantic integration through cooperation with its partners in the region," Buckovski said.
According to him, the regional dialogue and the joint support would be of great importance in a time of big changes on the Balkans, especially the ones referring to Kosovo.
