Leaving Skopje Alexander the Great Airport, you are covered by European legislation. The distance of 1 888 km sets the tier of your legal indemnity. Your flight sits in the middle bracket.
Why are you entitled to 400 €?
The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

- Departure airport: Skopje Alexander the Great Airport (SKP)
- Arrival airport: Gothenburg City Airport (GSE)
- Flight distance: 1 888 km (~2h22)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
Since the Sturgeon ruling of 2009, delays over 3 hours are treated the same as cancellations regarding payout entitlement. This greatly broadened the scope of the regulation.
How to know if the flight Wizz Air Skopje - Gothenborg is eligible?
Check your actual arrival time at Gothenborg. If Wizz Air made you wait more than three hours at Gothenburg City Airport, your claim is legitimate.
Note that the distance of 1 888 km fully justifies the 400€ compensation tier. This amount is net and {the airline|Wizz Air} cannot override it through its own general conditions of sale.

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Skopje, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
