He is coming to Skopje tomorrow the new Prime Minister of Bulgaria Kiril Petkov which makes restrained political announcements of policy changes.

- I want to be moderately pessimistic. Many times so far the dispute would have been almost resolved, so it was announced. The problem is not in Petkov, he has a coalition government - the Socialists and Slavi Trifonov's party before coming to Skopje warned him not to soften his position during the visit. "It is a complex coalition and we can expect to meet tomorrow," he said prof. Dr. Nenad Markovic for the Morning Briefing.

Markovic adds that Zaev unjustifiably instilled optimism that this story will last a very long time. A change can occur if there is a dramatic deviation from either side.

There has recently been a debate on the historical problems of the Balkans. On it, Markovic said that Bulgaria's policy towards Macedonia was in fact an argument with Belgrade.

- The same is shown by the members of the historical commission from Bulgaria. Bulgaria has no means to oppose Belgrade. Bulgarian politicians have a distorted notion that there is Yugoslav nostalgia in Macedonia. Bulgaria has no political instruments because Serbia is not interested in the EU. If you can not get on the donkey, you will hit the saddle. "Bulgaria wants to enter into a showdown with Belgrade and does not have the instrument," Markovic told the Utrinski briefing.
