The President Veljanoski Opened the 54th Balkan Festival of Folk Songs and Dance
This folklore event of ours, as the oldest on the Balkan, very successfully represents and affirms the cultural heritage and achievements of the participants’ states and nations in the past 54 years. Indeed, it sounds impressive, that so far over fifty thousand singers, dancers and instrumentalists from all continents participated in this Festival. I will only mention that the most beautiful Ohrid hosted the ensembles from Australia, USA and Canada, Malaysia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Nigeria, to name a few.
