"Because of Macedonia's strategic commitment to NATO and EU membership and its commitment to actively contribute to international missions, the need for a training centre meeting the standards intended for our armed forces and the armed forces of NATO members became evident," Konjanovski said on February 4th, describing the project as a "priority".
"Zbog strateške predanosti Makedonije članstvu u NATO i EU te njezine predanosti aktivnom doprinosu međunarodnim misijama, potreba za središtem za obuku koje ispunjava standarde namijenjene našim oružanim snagama i oružanim snagama zemalja članica NATO-a postaje očita" izjavio je Konjanovski 4. veljače opisujući projekt kao "prioritet".
