UN envoy puts five FYROM name options on table

[Prokomenos]

United Nations envoy Matthew Nimetz, pointing, takes questions from the press after unveiling his final proposals for a solution to the Macedonia name dispute that has divided Athens and Skopje for 15 years. Athens yesterday accepted as “a good basis for negotiations” five different composite names for the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) proposed by the United Nations special mediator on the Macedonia name dispute during talks in Athens.

Sources late yesterday revealed to Kathimerini four of the five proposed names: Democratic Republic of Macedonia, Constitutional Republic of Macedonia, Independent Republic of Macedonia and Republic of Upper Macedonia.
The same sources revealed that UN mediator Matthew Nimetz said FYROM could keep its “constitutional” name for use in domestic and bilateral relations while using the composite name in all its dealings with international organizations and on its citizens’ passports.

During talks in Athens yesterday with Nimetz and FYROM diplomat Nikola Dimitrov, Greece’s representative Adamantios Vassilakis reiterated Athens’s preference for a solution involving a single name rather than a dual option. However Greek diplomats are said to have accepted the five names put on the table by Nimetz as “a good basis for negotiations.” Dimitrov was reportedly unable to say when his government would be able to respond to the proposals, a stance that is said to have irritated Nimetz.

The Greek Foreign Ministry did not react to the proposals yesterday but sources indicated that one or two of Nimetz’s proposals might be acceptable.
Acknowledging that his proposal would not overcome all the objections of either Athens or Skopje, Nimetz asked for a response from each government within two weeks so a final solution can be reached before a planned NATO summit in April when the alliance will decide whether to admit FYROM.

“It is a compromise solution which does not satisfy either side 100 percent,” Nimetz said. “But I believe that overall it is a fair, decent reconciliatory solution that fulfills the expectations of both countries and can lead to a settlement,” he added.
Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis, who hosted the meeting between Nimetz and the two diplomats, agreed with the UN envoy regarding the need to move fast.
“Now is the time for a clear viable, practical and lasting solution,” she said.

The Greek government should not accept either of those. Their should be nothing with the name of Macedonia!

Nimic proposal can't cause anything else than laughter and sarcasm. It reminds a kindergarten lesson or something.

But it isn't Nimic's fault or fault of the American puppet show called UN.... It is fault of the pathetic government of Greece exclusively. Because they degrade the intelligence of all of us by accepting Nimic-type Karagiozides in Greece and learning their proposals.

Our politicians are clueless at best, incompetent buffons at worst. We have the wonderful foreign minister with the Colgate smile who does nothing else but grin broadly , showing her sturdy white dentures, parade in photo shoots with the foreign representatives and uttter one line hackneyed phrases. What is there to smile ? Does she think she is on a hollywood parade ? She gives the impression of being in a state of everlasting temporariness. While foreing representatives present their Diktats, our lady just smiles and nods approvingly. It is from pathos to bathos.

Years ago she used to have a serious look, but as it looks like, her American advisors (she has many) told her that she has to smile often - this is one of the ways the American politicians try to make a good impression.

However I wish you were right and she would doing nothing else but grin broadly.... Unfortunately she does something else too: Selling and sabotaging our national interests. Dora is one of the best pushers of the American interests in the Balkans.

Well a bright side to all of this is how long can America possibly have such an affect on countries? America is not an economical super power anymore which is why many other countries oppose her grip. Now Greece should do the same. They should also send her to the moon.

FOR THOSE THAT SEEK A NAME FOR " MACEDONIA ".
THE NAME OF THE AREA BEFORE WORLD WAR II WAS VARDARSKA.

THE NAME MACEDONIA WAS GIVEN TO THEM BY THEIR CRYPTO JEWISH LEADER JOSEF BROSTEIN (OR THE LEADER KNOWN AS TITO).

ATTACHED YOU WILL FIND THEIR MAP BEFORE 1940.


A FEW NOTES FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW.

1. ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND HIS TEACHER ARISTOTLE SPOKE HELLENIC. NOT ANY SLAVIC LANGUAGE.
2. THE MACEDONIAN CAPITAL WAS PELLA. NOT SKOPJE.
3. ALEXANDER'S SISTER WAS CALLED THESSALONIKI. NOT SOLUN LIKE THE SLAV(E)S CALL IT .
4. VOUKEFALAS WAS ALEXANDER'S HORSE. NOT A ZASTAVA.

SO, VARDARSKA IT IS AND STOP PLAYING WITH THE REAL MACEDONIANS.

WE'VE HAD ENOUGH WITH THIS JOKE.
