The European Union expressed serious concern Monday over the political situation in Macedonia in its second press release in a couple of days.

Maja Kocijancic, spokesperson for the EU High Representatives for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Federica Mogherini, said the EU is concerned about “the way in which events over the weekend were handled and the lack of balanced media coverage” of those events.

"I am sure you know that our concern over the increased politicization and perception of selective justice is also expressed in the regular report of the European Commission published at the close of last year," she said.
