Timcho Mucunski, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade of the Republic of North Macedonia, is on an official working visit to Lithuania to preside over the opening of North Macedonia’s new embassy in Vilnius.
Agenda and priorities
The ceremonial inauguration of the embassy in the Lithuanian capital marks a step to strengthen the country’s diplomatic presence and to deepen bilateral ties and cooperation with Lithuania and the wider Baltic region.
During his stay, Mucunski will hold a bilateral meeting with his Lithuanian counterpart, Kęstutis Budrys. The talks will focus on advancing the political dialogue, intensifying economic cooperation and the country’s EU integration processes.
Both ministers are also expected to exchange views on current security challenges and on cooperation within the framework of the Euro-Atlantic alliance.
The ministry noted that the visit comes at an important moment ahead of Lithuania’s presidency of the Council of the European Union in the first half of 2027, a period that will be particularly significant for enlargement policy and European integration matters.
