Bulgarian Head of State Rumen Radev said that it is no longer enough for the authorities of the Republic of North Macedonia to prove that they are not part of the anti-Bulgarian campaign. 
"It is high time they proved that they are actively fighting against this campaign," Rumen Radev said in response to a journalist's question. The President was asked to comment on the statement of the President of the Republic of North Macedonia that access of "one MEP and several other persons from Bulgaria" to North Macedonia should be banned. 

"Skopje has not even started negotiations with the EU, Radev said. - It has not yet opened the door to the room where these negotiations are to be held," the president pointed out, adding that all European mechanisms will be activated to put an end to the anti-Bulgarian hatred in North Macedonia.
