Anti-macedonian centiments were unexistent in Bulgaria, Foreign Minister Ivailo Kalfin said during a meeting with his Macedonian counterpart Antonio Milososki.

Bulgaria's upcoming EU entry was hardly going to change the relations between the two countries, said Kalfin as quoted by Focus news agency. After it became union member, Bulgaria was going to work for the development of the entire Balkan region, said he.

Relations between Bulgaria and Macedonia moved forward and were going to become even closer in the future, said Kalfin.

Kalfin attended the opening of a Bulgarian consulate in Macedonia's Bitola on December 27.

Milososki said that the consulate was going to aid co-operation between Bulgaria and Macedonia.

The new consulate was the eighth diplomatic office in Bitola, Milososki said.

Three Bulgarian diplomats will work in the consulate. People will be able to get information on documents needed for the issuing of visas there.

If some "anti" sentiments anywhere exist, these are anti-Bulgarian ones - in Macedonia. Macedonian people hate Bulgarians, the last proof - they kept innocent Bulgarian drivers in their prison during weeks without any reasonable explanation - only because of their Macedonian political affairs... Macedonians are HYPOCRITICAL in their relations with Bulgaria - they want only profit by our Eurpoean entry and I don't think yesterday "event" is positive for Bulgaria.

Bulgaria should immediately stop cowtowing to this insignificant and problem-ridden country and start calling it FYROM.

cont... and its inhabitants FYR(Former Yugoslav Republic) macedonians. FYROM should not be allowed to keep stealing Bulgarian history-this is an identity theft, a crime worse than stealing money! Greece has the same problem with the FYR macedonians but is not letting them get away with it. There are three kinds of macedonians- bulgarian, greek and albanian. To talk about just macedonians, means nothing. Bulgaria and Greece view this matter the same way and should get together on this one and teach them a lesson, once for all.
