Abstract

In order to recapture the essence and justification of this paper, the source of this theoretical
review we found it in the definition of statehood. After the end of the thirty years of civil war in Europe and
the signing of the peace treaty of Westphalia in 1648, the creation and development of the country began to
the form that we know today.
In terms of increasing interdependence between the countries, the question of their mutual cooperation is
essential. For the states equally important segment with internally arranged relations is the manner on
which they concern and regulate the international relations.
State boundaries are endpoints to where sovereignty lies within a country. The authorities within it regulate
the relations inside and the nature of its international positions. The highest authority, which does not
recognize any other form of higher power, is sovereignty. Considering that the law, especially the
international, is an active matter open to interpretation, although the basic features of a country are clear,
yet there are two types of states divided to a de jure- existing under law and de facto-existing in reality,
based on the matter whether and which of the characteristics of statehood they own.
Republic of Macedonia, has raised the issue of the international relations high. Confirmation of the said is
the chapter VI of the Constitution, which is dedicated to this issue. Except the Constitution, the area of the
international relations is stipulated by the Law on Foreign Affairs and the Law of signing, ratification and
execution of the international contracts. The Law on Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Macedonia, precisely
defines the concepts of "foreign affairs" and "foreign policy".
