Greece renamed its Ministry of Northern Greece into Ministry of Macedonia and Thrace in 1988. The administrative region, however, had been called Macedonia since 1913. The opposite claim (about the belated renaming of the region into Macedonia) is a myth popular with many Macedonians Slavs, similar to the Greek myth that no Slav called himself Macedonian before 1944. When I was in primary school (late 70s), our books were clear: "the region in northern Greece is called Macedonia
In fifty years when the Albanian population of F.Y.R.O.M. exceeds the Slavic population, this issue will be mute. Why? Because Greece will always veto your entry into the E.U. thus causing the exodus of your people to nations that can offer them employment. Compromise with Greece and survive, or disperse and cease to exist.
takileo,we as macedonians has been through times much tougher times than ur veto for nato or eu. Personally i dont want my country to be member of nato or eu. Look at bulgaria,they went from poor to poorer since entering eu and nato.But look positions of greece.First,they said they wont accept name Macedonia in any way to be part of our name. Now,they are offering,north Macedonia,upper Macedonia etc... its just you,ordinary people being manipulated by ur own government and arent able to see that
