“Unfortunately, due to the hegemonic approach of certain of our neighbors and I would say the lack of will within the EU itself, we are still in the waiting line, and we cannot negotiate because we saw when there is a clearly expressed will in the EU itself, how the problems are solved at the last December summit,” said Mickoski.
