Bulgaria's EU entry was good news and Macedonia could benefit from the experience of its neighbouring country, Macedonian foreign minister Antonio Milososki said.

The EU membership of Bulgaria was going to prove beneficial for Macedonia, said Milososki, as the country was going to border one more union member.

Such developments could speed up the execution of infrastructure projects in the Balkan region, said Milososki as quoted by Focus news agency.

Bulgaria and Romania's EU entry sent a clear signal to other countries in the Balkan region, said he. In addition Macedonia received even stronger lobby, which could support its European integration, Milososki said.
