This has been the 16th sitting of the commission which has the task to reach agreement on issues of the common history of the two countries. “The common roots of Bulgaria’s and North Macedonia’s alphabet turned out to be a controversial issue for the representatives of North Macedonia”, Angel Dimitrov said after the meeting.
