However, this importance that we give is not only due to historical or emotional reasons. North Macedonia is like the heart of the Balkans. It has great strategic importance. The stability and unity of this country is important for Europe. Today, the most important issue of humanity is to live in peace. In North Macedonia, which is a multi-religious, multi-lingual, multi-cultural and multi-identity community, people living in peace under a flag are the sons of a nation that has achieved great success.

The basis of this success is democracy. The democracy of North Macedonia, which preserves human dignity and keeps equality and freedom together, is a good example for most countries. Our relations, which started after independence, draw a rising graph from past to today. We believe that as the Marmara Group Foundation, the friendship between Turkey and Macedonia is eternal. Our people give the greatest support to this friendship.
