Carnegie’s Cornelius Adebahr sat down on Al Jazeera America to discuss Macedonian Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski’s government and the problems it faces. Socioeconomic problems, ethnic tensions, and the recent revelation of a government spying program have led to widespread protests across the country and violent police actions to counter them. Adebahr discussed these problems, the struggles Macedonia faces in acceding to NATO and the European Union, and how the United States can play a role in Macedonia’s future.
