For example — this summer, I was travelling between Skopje and Belgrade.

He said he was taken to a hotel in the Macedonian capital of Skopje where he was imprisoned and tortured for 23 days before being flown to Kabul, Afghanistan.

While our early hires in both Vilnius and Skopje were always working fully for Proton, they were formally employed by our local partners because we did not have a local entity that could employ them.

Those with Schengen visas (or appropriate passports) got a bus to Skopje.
