Irrespective of how and when a new government in Bulgaria will be formed, Sofia and Skopje should lose no time and must take concrete steps towards each other. The two countries must free the way for Northern Macedonia's accession negotiations with the European Union to start as soon as possible, Austria’s Minister for Europe, Integration and Foreign Affairs Alexander Schallenberg said in an interview for MIA News Agency.
