Congratulations are in order for the organization’s successful work and to all of its members these past years. I would like to use this opportunity to express my satisfaction with the collaboration we achieved during this period…you represent a model of how one should support and help their homeland. For everything UMD has done till now, for all of your individual and collective accomplishments, I am pleased that I had the opportunity to personally present you the Republic of Macedonia’s highest recognition for the Diaspora, as gratitude for everything UMD has done.
