I thank Mrs. Bojadjieska Ristovski. Her presentation was a work of clarity. Hearing from her answered all the issues that have been raised at our briefings. As Mrs. Bojadjieska Ristovski rightly said, I hope it is the start of an ongoing dialogue. There is a difficulty in that her mission is based in London, in a non-EU country, rather than here, but we can overcome that with technology and, even better, by actually having people present.

The human interaction is always the most important.
