The Foreign Ministry of North Macedonia has issued instructions to the country’s press on how reporters should use the terms in connection to the ethnicity, nationality and culture, confirming the concerns that had been raised by those sceptical about the Prespa Agreement.

Candidate of the Central Macedonia Regional Director with SYRIZA Christos Giannoulis was totally in line with the Prime Minister, and went even further calling "fascists" those who disagree with the Prespa Agreement.

Deputy Secretary of State John J. Sullivan spoke on Tuesday with Greek Foreign Minister George Katrougalos to congratulate him on his appointment as Foreign Minister and to commend the Greek Parliament’s ratification of the Prespa Agreement and the NATO Accession Protocol for the Republic of North Macedonia.
