According to the Macedonian government, now that Karadzic awaits trial, it was time for the countries in the region to leave the 1990s' tragic legacy to historians and "focus on the common European future for the Balkans as a whole".
Makedonska vlada smatra kako je sada, kad Karadžić čeka suđenje, vrijeme da zemlje u regiji tragično nasljeđe 1990-ih prepuste povjesničarima te da se "usredotoče na zajedničku europsku budućnost Balkana u cjelini".
