An unidentified representative of the Macedonian Interior Ministry confirmed Wednesday that the ministry was informed by citizens about the presence of persons in uniforms on the Tetovo-Jazince road, adding that the authorities in Skopje are "concerned" over the development.
Due to the appearance of armed persons, suspected by media of being members of the Albanian National Army (ANA), police forces and OSCE observers have been stationed in the area of the Tetovo Malesija.
ANA is an armed group gathering ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, which the UN administration in that province designated terrorist.
In late September, President Boris Tadić warned during a UN General Assembly session in New York, that Belgrade had information about terrorist activity in that area of Macedonia.

Albanians want independence in all of those nations and if the get independence from Serbia, Macedonia is next. If NATO and US occupy Kosovo for too long, NATO is also in line.
Terrorists should not be harbored as Albania and Kosovo governments have done.

The acceptance de jure of Independent Kosova will certainly stop the existence of these groups, be those Albanian, Serbian or Roma.

But those warnings, Gambill said, were also met with disbelief.
