Comment (by Zarko_Gjurov):

 According to e-mail from **Delphine Lebédel from Mozilla** dated from Jul
 6, 2019:
 “Concerning the localization of Firefox for Android: we have not been
 adding new locales for a few months now which is why you can not request
 it on Pontoon. In fact, we are transitioning to the Fenix browser, and it
 makes no sense to start localizations now since it's a huge project that
 takes approximately at least 6 months to translate, and a year to reach
 release. By the time localization is complete, Firefox for Android will
 most surely not exist anymore.
 Since Firefox for Android won't be here for much longer, I'm not really
 sure this effort still makes sense.”

 So can you explain me what will happen with Macedonian translation for Tor
 according to this statement of Mozilla’s officials?

 Keeping in mind that Tor MK translations were fully ready since last
 October, 2018, will be very unprofessional MK localization not to be
 published as final product.

 So as I see Tor for Android will stay on EN-US while there will be
 Macedonian Tor bundle for Desktop released together with all other
 languages in v9.0, am I right, or?
