Skopje, 6 November 2024 (MIA) - Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski said he expects further strengthening of the exceptional relations between the Macedonian citizens and the citizens of the United States after Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. presidential election. In response to a reporter's question on Wednesday regarding expectations after Trump's victory, Mickoski said the two countries have economic priorities that will continue to develop.

"Congratulations to the citizens of the United States on a democratic election day or election process. They chose progress, they chose something that they decided would be their priority, they chose President Trump to be their president again. I congratulated not only him, but also the people who are part of his team," said Mickoski. 

The PM noted that some of the members of Trump's team, including Howard Lutnick, CEO of one of the leading finance corporations in the United States - Cantor Fitzgerald, Devin Nunes, former California congressman and current CEO of Trump Media & Technology Group, as well as Chris Pavlovski, founder and CEO of international company Rumble, recently visited the country discussing new projects.  

"So, there is communication. I expect further strengthening of the exceptional relations between the Macedonian citizens and the citizens of the United States. We have certain economic priorities," Mickoski said. 

He added that he expects the economic priorities to be further bolstered. He reiterated that the Government expresses great support to the citizens of the United States, who have made the right decision in a democratic atmosphere and elected the new President of the United States, Donald Trump.
