The Council of Albanian Ambassadors follows with particular attention the debate on possible constitutional changes in North Macedonia, regarding the status of the Albanian language. In the statement of the Council of Albanian Ambassadors on possible constitutional changes in North Macedonia, regarding the status of the Albanian language, it is stated that questioning this status violates not only the rights of Albanians, but also the very foundations of North Macedonia as a state multiethnic and democratic.

"The Albanian language is not just a linguistic matter; it is a symbol of the identity, history and dignity of the Albanians in North Macedonia, who are a state-forming people in this country. Its evaluation as an official language is the result of long efforts and great sacrifices of Albanians for equality and justice. The decision of the Constitutional Court in this matter constitutes an important proof of the state's commitment to the principles of equality, unity and respect for the rights of ethnic communities", the statement of the Council of Albanian Ambassadors states.

Further in this statement it is stated that any attempt to reduce the role of the Albanian language contradicts the spirit and principles of the Ohrid Agreement, a historic agreement that ended the conflict on ethnic grounds and created the basis for coexistence and sustainable peace.

"We call on the institutions of North Macedonia, political and legal actors, as well as international partners, to protect the achievements so far and guarantee the full respect of the rights of Albanians as an important pillar of the country's stability and Euro-Atlantic integration ", the statement says.

According to this statement, North Macedonia has the opportunity to prove that it is a model of the success of multi-ethnic coexistence, and maintaining the status of the Albanian language is a cornerstone in this direction.
