ORIGINAL TITLE: THE SCHOOL YEAR IS OVER: The bilingual certificates in North Macedonia are prepared
The portal Infomaks published an article stating that the certificates of this year will be bilingual with the new name of the state. Besides Infomax, the magazines Magazin and Shilomagazin also published the “news”. The source of this disinformation first appeared on a private facebook profile.

It is true that the certificates are with the new name of the state, which should be more than clear. But a classic attempt to mislead the public is that all the certificates are bilingual. Namely, bilingual certificates are awarded in schools located in the territory where the majority of the population are Albanians.
That the certificates in the past years were bilingual, you can see the following photos.The F2N2 team managed to find photos of first-to-third and fourth-to-ninth grade students from this school year, which are with the new name of the state, but obviously not all are bilingual.
We consider this as an attempt to encourage interethnic intolerance and therefore we condemn it. Such attempts are aimed at harming the concept of “One Society for All”.
