The parliamentary elections brought Macedonia positive points. But now it is time to restart the reforms that were slowed down in year 2006 and to secure political consensus so that Macedonia can receive a date for start of the negotiations for membership, European Commissioner for Enlargement Olli Rehn stressed at yesterday's meeting with Macedonian Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki in Brussels.

"Now it is time to continue the reforms, to implement the Law for the Police, to reform the judicature and public administration, and to show results in the fight against corruption and organized crime," Rehn said.

MFA Milososki promised that results in the fight against corruption would be the Government's stamp in the coming period.
