European Free Alliance Condemns Bulgarian Pressure on Macedonian Minority in Albania
The European Free Alliance (EFA) has formally condemned what it describes as Bulgarian political pressure directed towards Macedonians residing in Albania. Following a unanimous decision by its General Assembly on June 6, 2026, at 18:57, the EFA adopted a resolution addressing the situation. The resolution, presented by the Macedonian Alliance for European Integration (MAEI), focuses on “Protection of the Macedonian minority in Albania and protection of the rights of minorities in the process of EU enlargement.” The EFA’s action reflects concerns regarding alleged interference from Bulgaria concerning the Macedonian minority within Albania.
The European political family, representing diverse peoples, regions, and minorities within the European Parliament, asserts that the situation warrants investigation by the European Commission. The resolution specifically calls for a thorough examination of the circumstances surrounding the Macedonian minority in Albania. The President of the Macedonian Alliance for European Integration emphasized the importance of safeguarding minority rights as part of the broader context of European integration.
The EFA’s stance underscores a commitment to upholding the rights of all communities within the European Union’s enlargement process.
