Meeting his Slovenian counterpart Tanja Fajon, he thanked Slovenia for its aid following the nightclub fire in Kočani.

Four people injured in the fire are being treated in Slovenia, two in Maribor and two in Ljubljana.

Mucunski also visited the UKC Ljubljana hospital, where he met the doctors treating two Macedonian patients, whose condition is gradually improving, but remains serious.

Minister Fajon said that no additional aid is required at the moment, but that Slovenia is ready to help if needed, as additional capacities are available.
