Not missed Rama's typical blankets until the hall could no longer keep its laughter.

He said he was not there to ask for European license because Balkans are Europeans, while stressing that unlike EU countries, in the Balkans they can laugh even when they suffer.

At one point, as he told a folk story, he apologised for the fact that so Balkan shows.

First let me try to give you some smiles in this grim atmosphere, because there's something in the Balkans that I believe we have to hold fast, that we can smile and laugh even when we suffer, so EU members don't, like the Germans.

One approached an optimistic euro and one euro suffering. asked the euro optimists for enlargement and said Turkey would enter the EU, either under the expectations of northern Macedonia or Albania.

The Europeansisist was asked and said, both will enter the EU when Turkey holds the presidency.

We've found a way to cope with this possession of Bechett. We're waiting for Godo, I don't know who Vladimir and Estragon is, me or Zaev, but we're like them. One says we're leaving, the other says we're leaving, and Bechetty says no one moves.

Bechetti may appear in the EU through different colors of nations, but we are here to fight. Why? Because we're not asking for license to be European. Whatever the EU people think, whatever they say, we are Europeans. I am very grateful to the prime minister here and to the president because in this discussion about the future of Europe we were invited. Of course, it's a side date, not a key one because it's dramatic and ridiculous to engage in Europe's future, and we don't get cold. We are Europe, the future of Europe without the Western Balkans within the EU. If the EU continues this way, of course it will be good for us, but worse for the EU.

I'm saying you mentioned founding fathers at the beginning. If the founding fathers were brought up to follow this today, I guess they'd rather be dead than alive. I have no proof, but they would go back to the grave. What are we arguing about? Like that priest in Constantinople when the walls were going down, they discussed angels ' sex.

Sorry to be so Balkan, it's good to be from Balkan to Europe. They don't lose their mood at dramatic moments.

Please don't mention third actors, third factors, it's very funny. They tell us that they love us, they tell us you're important, that we get married one day, but until then we don't even talk, but you don't talk to others. It doesn't work by proving our loyalty. We're talking members, I don't know, Macron who's the youngest will be writing memories.

You Bulgarians, don't be so typical of the EU, be Balkan. Make way, make way for the talks. Then you can become Balkans. Make way. - Rama said.
