Statement by Mr. N. Kotzias, Minister of Foreign Affairs, before his meeting with Mr. B. Osmani, Deputy Prime Minister of the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (Skopje, 31.08.2017)

Ν. Kotzias: I'm very glad to be here again. I have been here, for the first time, two years ago, so I know the whereabouts. I know my good colleagues. It is a honour for me that you found time to see us and inform us. I have said during the press conference this morning that the most important thing is to find in our hearts the willingness to find solutions to all our problems. We support our northern neighbour, which is a friend of ours, a neighbour that we want to be stable and secure and to find a way to join the euroatlantic structures. You have all our support and I believe that in this region, in Southeastern Europe, everybody will say in the future that my country and your country are best friends. Today we found this great friendship, in support of one another. Thank you very much.
