SKOPJE, April 13 (Xinhua) -- The Macedonian government has implemented over 90 percent of the European Union (EU) requirements, and expects a positive recommendation from the European Commission on April 17, Macedonian deputy prime minister for European affairs, Bujar Osmani, said Friday.
Osmani made the statement when presenting the status of implementation of Plan 3-6-9 to local media just ahead of the publication of the European Commission's progress report on Macedonia's Euro-integration path, due on April 17.
Osmani underlined that more than 90 percent of the measures provided for in the plan had been implemented and less than ten out of 103 measures had not yet been achieved.
According to Osmani, a part of what has not been realized is because some measures are underway, some holdups are due to technical details, and some because the opposition requested additional consultations.
"Macedonia has managed to offer an extremely productive reform agenda in these nine months and our country is back on the European path," added Osmani.
On April 12, during his visit in Brussels, Osmani presented the plan in front of EU High Representatives.
