AGP Executive Report
Last update: an hour agoEU Accession: North Macedonia’s talks with Bulgaria in Sofia produced no breakthrough. Foreign Minister Timcho Mucunski called the meeting constructive but said the countries remain far apart; Sofia insists Skopje must carry out the 2022 commitments, including constitutional amendments. Corridor VIII: Regional ministers and EU officials cast the route linking the Adriatic and Black seas as a strategic economic and security project. Its unfinished rail link between North Macedonia and Bulgaria remains a key gap. Iva Mihaylova Case: Mucunski said the executive must not interfere in court decisions, while Bulgaria pressed for medical access for the woman facing trial after a fatal crash. North Macedonia has agreed to let Bulgarian specialists examine her, though Mihaylova and her mother dispute the minister’s account of available care. Rule of Law: A canceled Judicial Academy intake means no new judges or prosecutors are expected for at least two years; about one in three judicial posts is vacant, raising concerns about state capture. Energy Links: Serbia says it will begin laying pipes for its gas interconnector with North Macedonia next week, with completion targeted for 2028.
