Politics

After promotion into President of MANU, Kocarev became politically active. He refused an order from the Prime minister Zoran Zaev to Academy to change the name of that institution in accordance with the Prespa agreement. In number of his articles he advocated termination of the Prespa Agreement and the Friendship treaty with Bulgaria concluded in 2017, as well, claiming their illegality. With respect to this views, Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts did not change its official name and that represented a first flagrant violation of the Prespa agreement.
