Bulgarians firmly support Macedonia’s accession to the European Union, a survey of the Institute of Politics has found. The survey has focused on relations between the two neighboring countries.

51% of the polled have said that Macedonians are the same as Bulgarians or very close to them and according to 85% think that the past has created an artificial distance between the citizens of the two countries.

91% of Bulgarians contend that the language the two nations speak is one and the same or with common roots. Only 8% believe that Bulgarian and Macedonian are two different languages.
