North Macedonia's foreign minister, Bujar Osmani, traveled to Ukraine on January 16 at the start of his one-year term as chairman of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). Osmani wrote on Twitter that he toured Borodyanka, near Kyiv, where he witnessed the "heartbreaking" destruction caused by Russia's unprovoked invasion. "Russian attacks caused immense suffering for the Ukrainian people and there are no excuses for these actions," he said. North Macedonia took over the rotating chair of the OSCE from Poland at the beginning of the year.
