Thank you. I am pleased to hear there is a Macedonian community in your electoral district as well. There are Macedonian communities all over the world, and we are pleased that Macedonia is present all over the world. I would like to underline that the constitution of the Republic of Macedonia reads that the Republic of Macedonia is a social state, providing the social conditions for every citizen of the Republic of Macedonia.
Regarding the questions you have posed to me, we certainly are interested in welcoming major companies to the Republic of Macedonia, which will produce various goods in the Republic of Macedonia, and we will export these goods to other states in the region.
There is equal taxation in the Republic of Macedonia, many taxation facilitations, free economic zones, and the will to welcome major companies. We are aware that the Republic of Macedonia is a small market, but it is located in the centre of the Balkans and in the centre of Europe. Thus we can export to all the states in Europe.
As you know, there is a visa regime between the Republic of Macedonia and Canada. Even people who hold diplomatic passports or official passports need a visa, and that is the reason for the slowdown and the less dynamic processing of visits from Canada. But I hope this visa regime will be changed in the near future, that there will be free travel for people with diplomatic and official passports, because it is also important for people from the business community to have an opportunity to travel freely. Certainly we would like to see visas abolished in the near future for the citizens of the Republic of Macedonia as well.
