Skopje, 22 October 2025 (MIA) - During the visit to London, Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski has met with His Majesty King Charles III. 

PM Mickoski said the meeting with King Charles III was sincere and meaningful. 

"We discussed the friendship between Macedonia and the United Kingdom, stability, development, and the protection of nature, areas to which the King has devoted great attention for many years. This meeting is both a recognition and a gesture of respect, as well as an encouragement to continue on the path of shared values, trust and partnership," Mickoski said in a Facebook post on Wednesday. 

As part of the 2025 Berlin Process Summit which is bringing together the leaders of the Western Balkan countries in London, the United Kingdom, PM Mickoski will hold several meetings aimed at economic and infrastructure strategic cooperation with the United Kingdom.

The government delegation headed by PM Mickoski also includes Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport Aleksandar Nikoloski, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade Timcho Mucunski, Minister of Finance Gordana Kochoska Dimitrieska, and Minister of European Affairs Orhan Murtezani.

The main objective of the two-day working visit to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the Berlin Process, i.e. the high-level meetings that will be held today. The Berlin Process Summit is hosted by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and this will be an opportunity for Prime Minister Mickoski to meet again with his British counterpart after a period of only 5-6 months.

At the London summit, the achieved results will be reviewed and the priorities for the upcoming period of regional integration in the Western Balkans will be set.

The Berlin Process was launched in 2014 on the initiative of then German Chancellor Angela Merkel, with the aim of strengthening political, economic, and infrastructural cooperation in the Western Balkans and bringing the region closer to the European Union.
