Police pledge ‘fight to the end’ for Macedonia

Slavic offcers defending Macedonia’s second-largest city from ethnic Albanian rebel assaults say they will fight to the end to defend the country and its borders.

‘‘This ground you are standing on will remain Macedonia we have no other home and no one is going to take it from us,’’ said Marjance, a member of the elite anti-terrorist police squad positioned on the outskirts of Albanian-majority Tetovo.
