Particular attention was devoted to the Agency’s engagement in dealing with hate speech and in promoting gender equality, its activities in the area of international cooperation and EU integration. According to the dynamics established by the EU’s 5G Action Plan, all EU member states must designate one major city to be ‘5G enabled’ by 2020, while all urban areas and major terrestrial transport paths must have uninterrupted 5G coverage. Macedonia as a country aspiring to become an EU member state, started preparations for introducing 5G in late 2017 and began preparing a national operational plan for the development of fast and super-fast electronic communication networks in Macedonia.
