The Letter From The Consulate
No. 153.
Gentofte/Copenhagen, Wednesday 27. January 2021
Dear reader,
The COVID-19 problems has made almost all governments focus on internal problems and solutions. But the international confrontations and problems do still demand politicians with an international focus. Russia, China, Turkey and the US are all trying to increase their influence in the Balkans. But dear reader, the Balkans have always been and are a part of Europe. So let us really hope that foot dragging governments wake up and say yes to the start of membership negotiations with Albania and North Macedonia. preferably in the first half of 2021.
