During our visit to Germany, we held a working meeting with Hendrik Wüst, Minister-President of the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia. We discussed strong economic cooperation and opportunities for new investments in Macedonia. German companies—such as Kostal, Kromberg & Schubert, WIK, Gerresheimer, and other prominent investors—have been present in the country for many years and are a significant part of the Macedonian economy. We are building strong partnerships, Nikoloski stated.
