The Guardian examines pro--feeling. EU of Albanians and Macedonians: We're going out, why do they want to come in?

“I sometimes think that those within the European Union do not understand how cold it is outside,” said Zoran Zaev, Prime Minister Macedonia will face elections in April. For Zaev, seeing Brexit's sagg has been a surprising experience until he tries to take his country to the opposite direction, towards its entrance.
The Western Balkan countries have been given the promise of the EU for more than a decade, but expectations of a formal start of talks with northern Macedonia and Albania were broken at the end of last year when French President Emmanuel Macron said that because of Brex and other challenges, the bloc had re-evaluated the approach in terms of enlargement, translates Periskopi.
This was too humiliating for Zaef, as one of the signatories of the Prespa Agreement, in which his country changed its name by ending its decade-long dispute with Greece, which was supposed to pave the way for starting EU entry talks. He said the EU's failure to fulfill the promise was “a historical error”.

irritated by this, he called for early elections for the month of April.
You take responsibility because I promised my citizens and parliamentarians that when we change the name, we'll have something in return. But that didn't happen,” said Zaevi.
Albania and Northern Macedonia are together in their goal of expansion, and even when green light is offered, access to it may be many years away. Serbia-Montenegro is still ahead in this direction, while Kosovo and Bosnia are less advanced.
Rama had told Guardian last year that entering the block would mean “the possibility of putting ourselves in a security zone from the curse of history”. This country had one of the most brutal Communist dictatorships in the world.
Rescue Avdyli, who runs a vegetable export business from the city of Lushnje, said: “Although we have export deals, and I'm convinced that the quality of our products is good, they require every reason not to let my products enter their markets. They don't want products that they raise themselves, even though they may be better. ” /Periscope
