The Crisis Management Center has called a meeting concerning the managing of a potential wave of refugees, informs the government.
“Macedonia established a system from the previous refugee crisis and this system is ready and functional to respond to all challenges that Macedonia would face as a transiting country. In 2019, the state of crisis at the Southern Border was prolonged and in accordance with this decision in case of conditions of increased pressure on our borders all institutions are obliged to increase their presence and engagement. The number of police and army members was increased today at the Southern borders and all operative plans for additional engagements were confirmed in case of an increased number of immigrants” informs the government.
At the meeting, that was presided by the Defense Minister Radmila Shekjerinska, it was stressed that the government is monitoring the situation and is communicating with Macedonia’s partners from NATO and the EU.
