Tirana - The Macedonian Defence Minister, Mr Vlado Buckovski, said yesterday the ethnic Albanian guerrillas "who terrorised" his country had trained at camps in neighbouring Albania, a charge rejected by the Tirana government.

In a one-day visit to Albania, Mr Buckovski met his Albanian counterpart, Mr Pandeli Majko and was due to see the Prime Minister, Mr Ilir Meta and Foreign Minister, Mr Arta Dade, to discuss improving security along the porous border. Mr Majko rejected allegations that Albania had been used to train guerrillas who waged a seven-month insurgency in Macedonia.
