Abstract: The Republic of Macedonia nowadays is facing the biggest political crisis since its \nindependence. Blockades on its euro-Atlantic path as the consequences of open \nquestions with neighbor states and internal institutional problems are the major \npoints, which draw away this country from the European Union and NATO. \nComprehensive internal polarization at the political level is influencing on the \nmarginalization of strategic interests of the Macedonian state. Such conditions create \nnew challenges within Macedonian society. Besides the problems on the interethnic \nlevel, Macedonian society is faced with huge economic and social problems. The \nmentioned combination of problems within Macedonia creates fertile ground for \ntensions, provocations between different groups of society and security \nconsequences wider in the region. From the other side, lack of appropriate \nmechanisms by the EU for problems in the Macedonian state additionally \ncomplicates political streams and eventual alternatives for solutions. From today's \npoint of view, the Republic of Macedonia is at the crossroads with two options: to accelerate the process of finding a solution to the ongoing political crisis and continue \non its euro-Atlantic track, or to become an isolated country with third world \ncharacteristics, although it is surrounded by member states of the EU and NATO.
