"The EC must understand that abandoning the practice of using the adjective 'Macedonian' influences the negotiation process in New York in a manner that is not helpful for a successful outcome, because it refers to Macedonians' identity issues which can not be part of any talks," Kostadinovski said.
"EK mora shvatiti kako odustajanje od prakse korištenja pridjeva 'makedonski' utječe na pregovarački proces u New Yorku na način koji ne pridonosi uspješnom ishodu, jer se odnosi na pitanja identiteta Makedonaca koja ne mogu biti dio bilo kakvih razgovora", rekao je Kostadinovski.
