Lithuania’s Foreign Minister Landsbergis backs North Macedonia’s efforts to become a member of the EU quicker
On 22 August, at the conference “Quo Vadis, Europe?” organised by the EU’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell in Santander, Spain, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania Gabrielius Landsbergis met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of North Macedonia Bujar Osmani.
“Lithuania understands and supports North Macedonia’s efforts to accelerate accession negotiations with the EU. We very much hope that Macedonian politicians will be able to find consensus and adopt the necessary constitutional changes,” Landsbergis said.
The Foreign Ministers also discussed further support for Kyiv. North Macedonia has already provided military support for Ukraine. The meeting also focused on the work of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). North Macedonia chairs the organisation this year.
