MEP Andrey Kovatchev has informed the President of the European Parliament, the commissioner for enlargement and the Bulgarian authorities that he was not allowed to enter the Republic of North Macedonia on 6 May.
Kovatchev, the chairman of the foundation Bulgarian Memory Milen Vrabevski, and three other Bulgarians wanted to reach Novo Selo, Strumitsa to attend a memorial service at the Bulgarian military cemetery but were not allowed to enter North Macedonia.
