Bill Nicholov, President of Macedonian Human Rights Movement International (MHRMI) and Vasil Sterjovski, Macedonian human rights activist from Albania, the first Macedonian elected to parliament in that country, and President of the Macedonian Alliance for European Integration (MAEI), continued their meetings with Canadian government and foreign affairs officials. They met with Dr. Hedy Fry, Canada’s Head of Delegation to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s Parliamentary Assembly (OSCE PA) and Special Representative to the OSCE PA for Gender Issues, and Canada’s longest serving female Member of Parliament and MP of Canada’s current government.

On October 2, 2024, Macedonian Human Rights Movement International (MHRMI) President, Bill Nicholov, and Macedonian human rights activist from Albania and President of the Macedonian Alliance for European Integration (MAEI), Vasil Sterjovski, met with Julia Cloutier, Deputy Director of Global Affairs Canada for European and Eurasian Affairs. Sterjovski is also the first Macedonian elected to parliament in Albania.

Macedonian Human Rights Movement International (MHRMI) demands the immediate arrest of Zoran Zaev, the US-installed “Prime Minister” of the former regime in the Republic of Macedonia, and the arrest of all relevant regime officials. MHRMI will focus on the laws broken by Zaev et al. (see below) which, under the Macedonian criminal code, necessitate their immediate, and long overdue, arrest.

Macedonian Human Rights Movement International demands the immediate nullification of the "Prespa Agreement", which illegally and forcibly changed Macedonia's name into the highly derogatory "North Macedonia" in 2019, and in contravention of the Macedonian constitution, parliamentary rules, Macedonian and international law, and multiple international human rights conventions. Full details are below. Nullifying this illegal treaty will return Macedonia's name and guarantee its right to self-determination.

Bulgarian authorities continue to crack down on Macedonians’ human rights and any expression of Macedonian identity in Bulgaria, with actions and tactics fully sanctioned by the European Union and United States. The number of incidents have increased exponentially as s a direct result of the West’s endorsement of Bulgaria’s anti-Macedonian demands (see the European Union’s official adoption of Bulgaria’s policies, known as the “French Proposal), including, but not limited to:

Macedonian organizations filed a lawsuit in the Court of Justice of the European Union, against the European Commission, in an historic step to force the registration of Macedonian associations in Bulgaria and protect their right to freedom of assembly and association. The lawsuit, filed on behalf of the Macedonian Club for Ethnic Tolerance in Bulgaria, and led by Nov Asnom, Macedonian Human Rights Movement International, World Macedonian Congress Canada, Simon Popovski, Iljo Janev, and several others, demands that the European Union  immediately suspend its financial assistance package, administered through the European Cohesion Fund, of 1.467 billion euros  to Bulgaria pending an immediate end to Bulgaria's violations of Macedonians' rights and the immediate registration of the Macedonian Club for Ethnic Tolerance and the other organizations that it has refused to register, based solely on the grounds that they are Macedonian.

Macedonian Human Rights Movement International calls on Macedonians in Canada to join our support of Dan Masin, a proud Macedonian-Canadian, who is seeking candidacy in the Ontario riding of Markham-Stouffville. A proud Macedonian voice is urgently needed in Canadian Parliament in order to advocate for Macedonians and demand an end to Canada's appalling anti-Macedonian policies. As is the case throughout the Greater Toronto Area, Macedonians make up a large percentage of inhabitants in the riding of Markham-Stouffville, and we are specifically calling on them to take immediate action — the first step is to sign up for party membership so that a vote can be cast in support of Dan Masin's candidacy. (see below)

You need to take action. Otherwise, everything Macedonian will continue to be given away to those who want us eradicated. You'll be forever known as a "North Macedonian" from "North Macedonia" — terms specifically designed to eradicate our name, identity, culture, heritage, language, and history. Saying you're Macedonian is not enough. Simply attending Macedonian events is not enough. Complaining about the brutality of the past several years without taking action is not enough.  Macedonian Human Rights Movement International does not stand idly by. We've been leading the Macedonian cause for almost four decades, with concrete human rights projects throughout all of partitioned Macedonia and international lobbying for our name and rights.
