EU Delegation to North Macedonia

Delegation of the European Union to North Macedonia. Follow the EU Ambassador, Michalis Rokas, on @MichalisRokasEU

[Björn Gabriel @BjornGabriel]

Pleased to join the @EIB-sponsored panel “Capital Meets Infrastructure” at the 2026 #Macedonian #Energy #Forum. Key takeaway: scaling renewables & storage in the #WesternBalkans is no longer a tech or capital challenge - it’s an execution one. Bankable projects, grids & public sector capacity are the unlock! 🇪🇺 support stands ready.

[António Costa @eucopresident]

North Macedonia is making progress towards EU accession.

Adopting the agreed constitutional amendments remains the only way forward towards formally starting the negotiations.

[António Costa @eucopresident]

Enlargement is the EU’s and North Macedonia’s shared goal.

During my visit to Skopje, I welcomed North Macedonia’s commitment to reforms.

Recent, tangible progress on the Reform Agenda allows North Macedonia to benefit from the Growth Plan and to advance EU accession.

Adopting the necessary constitutional amendments remains the only way forward towards formally starting the negotiations.

We are ready to support you further but the power to shape your future is in your hands!

Welcome to North Macedonia 🇲🇰 President Costa @eucopresident.

Your visit comes at an important moment of North Macedonia’s path towards the European Union and sends a strong signal of the 🇪🇺 EU’s continued commitment to the country and the region.

[EU Delegation to North Macedonia @AmbassadorEU]

At yesterday's Energy Forum, @MichalisRokasEU highlighted that energy security, competitiveness and the green transition are shared priorities for 🇲🇰 and the Western Balkans.
The next step is implementation: turning plans into investments, jobs and tangible benefits for citizens.

What does the EU Growth Plan really mean in everyday life?
Less waiting, easier SEPA transfers, better student dorms, faster internet, more digital services.
In the coming weeks, real stories of the changes already happening.

[António Costa @eucopresident]

This week, I will visit our six Western Balkans partners.

My visit to the region sends a clear signal: our commitment to the Western Balkans is real; and so is the opportunity of enlargement.

The momentum is there. Now is the time to deliver.

[EU Council @EUCouncil]

The EU is the Western Balkans' primary and most reliable partner.

The #EUWesternBalkans summit, taking place on Friday 5 June in Tivat, Montenegro, will be an opportunity for the EU to reiterate its unequivocal commitment to the EU membership perspective of the Western Balkans.

[Steffen Hudolin @SteffenHudolin]

Strong message today from young political representatives in North Macedonia: dialogue, respect and democratic maturity still matter.
The Declaration on European Values is an important signal for the country’s European future.
Thanks to the OHRID Institute for the initiative.

The Russian drone crash into apartments in Galați was a blatant and serious violation of Romania’s sovereignty and European airspace.

I spoke with Foreign Minister @oana_toiu this morning to convey the EU’s full solidarity with Romania.

Russia has long ago stopped respecting borders.
Moscow cannot be allowed to breach European airspace with impunity.

EU Foreign Ministers yesterday vowed to ramp up pressure on Russia, increase support for Ukraine, and invest in Europe’s own defence readiness.

[EU Council Press @EUCouncilPress]

.@eucopresident António Costa will travel to the Western Balkans next week (1-5 June) to meet with leaders from the region and to co-chair the EU-Western Balkans Summit in Tivat, Montenegro (on 5 June).

Russia has been portraying the EU and Ukraine’s leadership as “warmongers” unwilling to end the war. This is, of course, an outright lie.

In reality, it is the Kremlin that has rejected at least seven peace proposals in 2025 alone.

#StandWithUkraine

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

Russia wants us to discuss who talks to them,
And they are already picking who is suitable for that.

Let's not walk into that trap.

Negotiations are always a team effort, with a defined strategy.

That’s why the substance that we discuss today in Cyprus matters much more.

My press remarks ahead of today’s meeting of EU Foreign Ministers ↓

Russia hit a dead-end on the battlefield, so it terrorizes Ukraine with deliberate strikes on city centres.

These are abhorrent acts of terror meant to kill as many civilians as possible.

Moscow reportedly using Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missiles – systems designed to carry nuclear warheads – is a political scare-tactic and reckless nuclear-brinkmanship.

Next week, EU Foreign Ministers will discuss how to dial up the international pressure on Russia.
