“You've showed the world that it's possible for people of different backgrounds to live together in peace,” said U.S. President Bush in his meeting with Macedonian Prime Minister Buckovski on October 26th, 2005.

The Government of the Republic of Macedonia has made every effort to create an atmosphere in which a multi-ethnic society can develop and prosper. Macedonia serves, and will continue to serve, as an ideal developmental model reflecting prosperous multi-ethnic European society. The country has worked to resolve the heavy challenges of establishing a multi-cultural society despite the many socio-economic problems it has faced since its statehood in 1991. Equally important, Macedonia has shown uncommon determination in its efforts to embrace the western democratic order. Macedonia is a success story in building a stable, multiethnic democracy in the Balkans.
