"The resolutions proposed by Martti Ahtisaari as regards the final status of Kosovo do not threaten the national and state interests of Macedonia. The process of defining the document is continuing. The two sides are expected to submit proposals, after which we will get the final resolution for Kosovo. The good thing for us is that the demarcation of the border, which was one of the open issues, will start," President Branko Crvenkovski said at the end of his visit to Tetovo yesterday.

Asked by journalists whether new scenarios are possible in Macedonia related to the defining of Kosovo's status, Crvenkovski said, "Macedonia is not part of the problem of Kosovo and it is not part of the resolution. We are interested in political stability in the region and we expect the institutions of the system in Kosovo to function".
