CATCHING UP WITH THE REPUBLICS:
MACEDONIA

Macedonia,probably the country that would resist the most of joining another union.Due to its own ethnic aspirations of uniting all of Macedonia,the problems with Albanians in the west and the language differences Macedonias agenda might not be concerned about the union,but what about in a few years ? In a few years i see the problem of albanian population rising and it causing public stigma and racism brewing in the country,and ethnic tensions flaming up in the west.Also,although it is on its road to join the EU,the country is very controversial and will have an uphill battle to fight all the way.So? why would they want to join ? wellp two things that could pressure macedonians into joining the union,could be,growing bulgarian and albanian nationalism,in order to protect its own interests and having a range of countries to rely on,we think and support the macedonians in joining our union as fast as possible.
