“The basis of our identity is our language, then history, our common history with our compatriots.This was stated by the President of the Republic of Macedonia, Stevo Pendarovski, in an interview with euobserver.com and stressed that language and identity cannot be discussed.
It is no secret that there was a codification of the Macedonian language in 1945. (later the rules for the Macedonian language were written), but it is a similar language, very close to Bulgarian, but not Bulgarian, says Pendarovski.
The Macedonian president considers the claim that the history of Macedonia up to 1945, the entire 10 centuries, is nonsense (nonsense) is the history of Bulgaria..
