Prema riječima makedonske vlade, sad kad Karadžić čeka na suđenje, vrijeme je da zemlje u regionu ostave tragično naslijeđe iz 1990-tih historičarima i da se "usmjere na zajedničku evropsku budućnost za Balkan u cjelini".
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".
