Pressure over Athens for solving name issue
Courtiers from the Western Balkans should meet the requirements for EU membership, but it is not admissible Greece to blackmail Skopje in the name dispute. That is what Andreas Schockenhoff, member of the Federal Parliament of Germany and deputy-chairman of the Christian Democratic Party stated, cited by Macedonian Vecer daily.
According to Andreas Schockenhoff Germany aims at European integration of all countries on the Western Balkans and in his words all achievements have to be assessed separately. Andreas Schockenhoff believes that all Western Balkans countries are at different stage in terms of EU integration.
