Macedonia and Greece Complete New Round of Confidence Building Talks


Representatives from the Macedonian and Greek Foreign Ministries met in Thessaloniki on Monday to hold a second round of political consultations on implementing the confidence building measures package.

The Macedonian delegation was led by Elena Kuzmanovska, State Secretary in the Foreign Ministry, and on the Greek side her counterpart was Ambassador Petros Mavroidis. These confidence building measures include practical proposals for cooperation that the two countries can work on, reducing the negative influence of the name issue, which has hampered cooperation for decades.
