Warm farewell meeting at Republic of North Macedonia in UK with Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office team covering North Macedonia. Thank you for your great cooperation in the past 4 yrs, I'm proud of our achievements! I'm very hopeful for the future of 🇲🇰 & 🇬🇧 relations. Victoria Billing Andrew Page
UK in North Macedonia
Macedonian-British relations are founded on friendship, mutual trust and strong partnership with dynamic defence cooperation, now as NATO allies.
Meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson at #NATOSummit 🇲🇰 🇬🇧
Great to meet Prime Minister of Kosovo Albin Kurti. We discussed:
👉 Strengthening our bilateral relationship 🇬🇧🇽🇰
👉 Galvanising action against Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine
👉 Challenging malign influence in the Western Balkans
Pleased that today’s judgment in The Hague upheld Ratko Mladić’s genocide conviction. The UK helped bring Mladić & others to justice for war crimes in the #WesternBalkans . I hope the ruling will bring some solace to survivors & victims' families. gov.uk/government/new…
Today Parliamentarians, Vanja Filipovic Matt Field & Remembering Srebrenica held a minute’s silence to mark genocide in #Srebrenica
As mother of all Parliaments we have a duty to give a voice to those who others seek to silence, & take a stand against efforts to silence truth & survivors
Another moving and important commemoration, organised by Remembering Srebrenica - including an address by 🇬🇧 Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab. Community actions have been taking place across the UK. Our sincere thanks to all involved.
#RememberingSrebrenica
The Foreign Secretary, Dominic Raab said:
“Today, we pause to remember the victims and honour the survivors of the Srebrenica genocide. The United Kingdom continues to play a vital role in ending impunity for these horrific crimes...”

Home Secretary, RT Hon Priti Patel MP visited #Tirana and signed alongside Minister of Interior Bledi Çuçi a new Readmission Agreement that will strengthen the existing arrangements the 🇬🇧 has in regards to the readmission of Albanian nationals who have no right to be in the UK.
Great discussions between UK's Home Secretary, RT Hon Priti Patel MP, and Minister on Interior, @BlediCuci, on mutual challenges between 🇬🇧&🇦🇱.
Fully committed to enhance cooperation on rule of law and fighting organised crime.
The #BerlinProcess is a crucial part of reconciliation in the Western Balkans & a bright future for its citizens. 🇬🇧 has a major role, including hosting Western Balkans Summit in London 2018. I was pleased to meet counterparts virtually today. We’ve made progress but more to do!
🇬🇧 🤝 🇸🇮 An honour to celebrate #SloUKFriendshipDay with President Borut Pahor. Grateful that the ties between our countries and people are growing ever stronger - this is more important than ever as we confront some of the greatest challenges in our collective history.
