Macedonia's path to the EU leads via Ohrid and the country must demonstrate political maturity and consensus over the next few months. This is the message that Deputy Prime Minister for EU Integration Gabriela Konevska-Trajkovska conveyed to the European officials in the European Political Center in Brussels on Tuesday.

The European diplomats who came to hear the Macedonian minister's lecture were mostly interested about the current political stalemate in Macedonia. The deputy prime minister said that the Government is prepared to make consensual steps, even though, as she said, this is not an easy task.

"We must promote Macedonia as a multiethnic democracy and a consensus must be reached on the Ohrid agreement," she said.
