NETHERLANDS CONSIDERS MACEDONIA READY TO START EU NEGOTIATIONS
Original title: “Timonie is not alone – Another bash for Zaev from EU ambassador
The Express.mk portal refreshes the text with the title in which it can be told that he is a French ambassador Timonie, not alone, can be found on the “bash” that can be found and available to the Republic of Macedonia. Thus, the portal turned to the implementation of the “bash” by the Dutch Ambassador to the Republic of Macedonia, Northern Macedonia, Dirk Jan Kop, accordingly can be found at a grandstand organized by Transparency International-Macedonia.
Perceive that you own the journal for the text and content of the news, you will be determined to practice classic spin work. Namely in the content of the topic is the grandstand organized by Transparency International Macedonia in the framework of the project “Assessing the Vulnerability of Corruption in Policies and Consultations on the Use of a Specialized Focus on Nepotism, Cronism and Clientism”. In this context of exhibiting new products, Dutch ambassadors Dirk Jan Kop speaking on corruption and the state of employment in the state administration has used a metaphor comparative as not: “when a ship begins to sink, it must first be removed from the water and then shut down holes ”, and also addressed compliments to the State Commission for the Prevention of Corruption, which since February, “has started to collect water”, with a good measure of success, but this is only the beginning.
This is a very clear example of how a news spin is made to manipulate the public. The participation of the Dutch ambassador in the grandstand, and his statement, are a completely different topic and have nothing to do with the Netherlands and Ambassador Dirk Jan Kop’s stance on the “no” take of the date for the start of EU accession negotiations. Confirmation of this is the statement of the Dutch ambassador for “Sakam da kazam” which it is quoted as follows: “The Netherlands is of the opinion that North Macedonia should be given a date for its accession of negotiations with the European Union. So we are also disappointed by the fact that the Council of The European failed to give the date. However, our purpose and message remain the same: North Macedonia should get as close to the European Union as possible and to enter as soon as possible. I am convinced that this moment is not too far away. If not more, this temporary prolongation proves that we need to double our forces to make North Macedonia even more prepared. Reforms necessarily must continue, and increasingly, be transformed into good and legislative intentions of sound in the real practical sense on the ground. In the process, North Macedonia is an active participant and a partner, above all to improve the lives of its citizens ”
Therefore, our position remains that North Macedonia is ready to start negotiations with the European Union membership, despite differing opinions within the EU, which are beyond its control, “Ambassador Kop told for “Sakam da kazam.mk”
Certainly, such attitude of the Netherlands with the support for our state for the beginning of negotiations with the EU, is not mentioned in the editorial text of the Express.mk portal.
The text of the Express.mk portal is just another example of biased reporting of its certain portals. The spin on the news of attacks and accusations against the prime minister in this period is increasing frequently, and aimed at manipulating the opinion, thus creating the false thought that the failure in Brussels is a failure of the Government. The progress of the country was accepted by all international partners, including EU member states as well as the european institutions.
