„This evil act that caused the death of eight Macedonian soldiers was a great shock forus. I would like to extend my condolences to the families of deceased, who gave their livesdefending Macedonia's territorial integrity and sovereignty.

It is more than clear that the international community will not tolerate this any more. If todaywe may define the Albanian and militant terrorism, I consider it is a high time to unite and to useall of the resources and possibilities to defeat that terrorism. Therefore, every inch in Macedoniashould be checked and I believe that the international community will support us in this action.“
