UMDGC2013 | Day 1 Luncheon - Euro-Atlantic future of Macedonia - Radmila Sekerinska

Radmila Sekerinska, Member of Parliament, Assembly of the Republic of Macedonia and Chair of the National Council for European Integration of Macedonia gave remarks at the 4th UMD Global Conference held in Skopje, Macedonia on July 25, 2013. Thursday’s lunch panel focused on the Euro-Atlantic future of Macedonia as well as its bilateral relations with the United States and the United Kingdom. The panel featured U.S. Ambassador Paul D. Wohlers, U.K. Ambassador Christopher Yvon, Macedonian Member of Parliament and Chair of the Committee of Foreign Policy, Antonia Milososki, Member of Parliament and Chair of the National Council for European Integration of Macedonia, Radmila Sekerinska, and Executive Director of the Macedonian Center for International Cooperation, Aleksandar Krzalovski. UMD President Metodija A. Koloski moderated the discussion and Q&A session following the panel. Milososki and Sekerinska, both previous ministers in government, focused on ways to remove the political and economic standstill Macedonia is in now, as a result of Greece’s opposition to Macedonia’s NATO and EU membership. Because they reside on different sides of the political aisle, it was expected that Milososki and Sekerinska would present different perspectives on current issues in the Republic, as well as solutions. However, despite their political differences, both came to the conference sharing the same goal for Macedonia – a Euro-Atlantic future.
