2026 - First part-session

In the draft resolution, paragraph 13, in the first sentence, replace the words "French proposal" with the following words:

"European Consensus of 2022".

Explanatory note

This amendment is of a factual nature and seeks to clarify that the inclusion of Bulgarians in the Constitution of the Republic of North Macedonia does not constitute a "proposal" by an EU Member State, but is an official agreement between the EU and the Republic of North Macedonia and an obligation stemming from the 2022 Council Conclusions on Enlargement.
