North Macedonia is a member of @NATO, wants to join the EU and is a close friend of Georgia. A lot to talk about with @SPendarovski during my visit! pic.twitter.com/rQQ9NCcpRq

The president’s press office said that both Georgia and North Macedonia are also seeking to become the EU members and ‘have a lot to exchange in terms of experience for this.”
