  • Macedonia Name Dispute: Problem Solved? Page 1 of 2
    LSE European Politics and Policy (EUROPP) Blog: Macedonia name dispute: Problem solved? Page 1 of 2 Macedonia name dispute: Problem solved? An agreement has been reached in the long-running name dispute between Greece and Macedonia. Thimios Tzallas writes that although the agreement is still subject to approval by the parliaments of both countries, Macedonian Prime Minister Zoran Zaev has sent a strong message to Brussels in advancing the country’s case for EU membership. The long-running disagreement over what to call ‘the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia’ (FYROM) has been an entirely insignificant one. The country has co-existed harmoniously with its neighbour Greece for a quarter of a century, and no territorial or national minority conflict has clouded their relations. The issue of what to call the country has also been resolved in practice: the whole world refers to it as ‘Macedonia’ and will continue to do so regardless of the new name (Republic of North Macedonia) contained in the new agreement. But despite this, in 2017, just twelve days after being sworn in, Nikola Dimitrov, FYROM’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, went to Greece and in a TV interview told the Greek public that the disagreement about the name is “his country’s greatest problem”. It is not. In 2015, fourteen armed men and eight policemen were killed at Kumanovo, near FYROM’s border with Kosovo. The incident shook public opinion in the country, re-igniting memories of 2001, when it stood at the brink of civil war on the issue of the rights of the Albanian minority.

  • Republic of Macedonia Erga Omnes
    Republic of Macedonia erga omnes Jason Miko December 2017 A note about the author: I am not Macedonian. I am an American of Hungarian ethnicity (half) with the rest a European mixture, and I grew up in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona. In the fall of 1992, a variety of circumstances conspired to put me into the orbit of the countries of Southeastern Europe. I began working with a firm in Washington, D.C. which represented the country of Croatia, followed, in rapid succession, by Bosnia and Herzegovina and then Kosovo, among other clients. In the spring of 1996, I became acquainted with and involved in Macedonia, and in the summer of 1996 I had an opportunity to travel to Macedonia to live and work for three months. I stayed for seven years, through the middle of 2003 and then spent the majority of the rest of the 2000s there. Since 2010, I have continued going back and forth each year, often several times in a year. In 2009, I produced a documentary film about Macedonia and its name and identity, A Name is a Name, with a team of talented professionals from Macedonia and other European countries. I have written over 625 columns for Macedonian newspapers, magazines, and websites since 2001, and been involved in many other ways that will not be mentioned here for the sake of brevity. Key takeaways ►The current Government of Macedonia, led by the Social Democratic Union of Macedonia (SDSM), has pledged that they will hold a referendum on the name. As Macedonian Foreign Minister Nikola Dimitrov said this summer, “There will definitely be a referendum.” (Background: the idea of a referendum was introduced by the previous government, led by VMRO-DPMNE.) ►The official Greek position has been reiterated numerous times, stating that the issue must be resolved before Greece lifts its de-facto veto on Macedonia’s membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or the European Union (EU).

  • A Diplomatic Fairytale Or Geopolitics As Usual: a Critical Perspective on the Agreement Between Athens and Skopje
    In: IFSH (ed.), OSCE Yearbook 2018, Baden-Baden 2019, pp. 113-134. Biljana Vankovska A Diplomatic Fairytale or Geopolitics as Usual: A Critical Perspective on the Agreement between Athens and Skopje Background to the Name Dispute and Its Implications The so-called name dispute between Greece and the Republic of Macedonia has had a long and unique trajectory. Since the name dispute is not the focal point of this analysis, we shall only make a brief overview of its essential elements.1 Paradoxically, the dispute was “born” – i.e. politically and legally outlined – rather than resolved by the United Nations (UN) Security Council in the early 1990s. Security concerns for the Balkan region, although highly legitimate at the time, have in the meantime served as a ‘fig leaf’ to conceal the power politics in the region and the Republic of Macedonia. In 2018, when the landscape of the territory of former Yugoslavia is radically different from what it was in the 1990s, this dispute is not only an indication of the impotence and political inertia of the global powers represented in the Security Council. It also shows that the name Macedonia represents much more than what foreign observers dubbed a “ridiculous and absurd” disagreement between two Balkan states. The deep roots of this dispute can be traced back a century, or at least as far as the Greek civil war and the beginning of the Cold War, and the declar- ation of independence in 1991 disturbed long sleeping ghosts. Incapable of dealing with the major conflict in former Yugoslavia, the UN rushed to prevent and resolve at least one (potential) clash.

  • Progress in Resolving the Greek- Macedonian Name Dispute: Will It Break the Gordian Knot at Last? Erwan Fouéré
    18 June 2018 Progress in resolving the Greek- Macedonian name dispute: Will it break the Gordian knot at last? Erwan Fouéré Some might argue that Macedonia is being asked to pay an unduly heavy price simply for the sake of starting EU accession negotiations, while others will believe that the Agreement reached last weekend is well worth that price. f all the many bilateral disputes that continue to cast a shadow over the Western Balkan region, none is more symbolic of the deep-rooted legacy of history and the O politics of identity and nationalism that pervade the region than the dispute that has divided the two neighbouring countries, Greece and Macedonia, for decades and more recently since the latter’s independence in 1991 following the break-up of the former Yugoslavia. Greece, whose northern province is also called Macedonia, used every opportunity to make clear its objection to what it perceived as the appropriation by Macedonia of the heritage of Alexander the Great, and what it called its “irredentist behaviour”. Macedonia’s admission to the UN under the provisional name of the “former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” was blocked for over a year until 1993. The Interim Agreement of 1995 lifted the 20-month Greek blockade against Macedonia and committed both sides to continue negotiations under UN auspices and enjoined Greece from blocking Macedonia’s application for membership in other international bodies as long as it did so under the provisional name. Under the patient guidance of the UN mediator Matthew Nimetz appointed in 1995, various attempts were made over the years to find a compromise solution.

[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: Chen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu Macedonia’s Foreign Policy in 2018 In its first year in power, the government of SDSM has been unexpectedly pro-active in foreign affairs. One of the central political narratives deployed by the new government has been the mission to restore Macedonia’s international reputation, and to bring Macedonia back on the path of the double integration in the EU and NATO. These objectives have been described not only as strategic orientations, but urgent for the survival and success of Macedonia as a country. Hence, the Prime Minister Zoran Zaev and the Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikola Dimitrov (an experienced diplomat formerly of VMRO-DPMNE) have had an intense foreign policy agenda, with frequent meetings with their counterparts from abroad, which have dominated the news cycle in the country. Other officials, such as the Minister of Defense Radmila Shekerinska have had a pronounced diplomatic activity as well. Some of the more notable developments in this period have also happened in the domain of foreign affairs – such as the agreement on good neighborly relations between Bulgaria and Macedonia. Overall, the Macedonian government has tried to project a “cooperative” image on the international stage, which has been generally welcomed by the West. The trend of pro-active Macedonian diplomacy is expected to continue, and perhaps even intensify in 2018, especially with regards to the name dispute.

  • North Macedonia: in Brief
    North Macedonia: In Brief May 29, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45739 SUMMARY R45739 North Macedonia: In Brief May 29, 2019 The United States has supported North Macedonia since its independence from Yugoslavia in 1991 and strongly backs its European Union (EU) and NATO ambitions. (The country’s Sarah E. Garding constitutional name was the Republic of Macedonia until February 2019, when it was renamed Analyst in Balkan and the Republic of North Macedonia.) On multiple occasions, the United States played a key role in Southeast Europe Affairs defusing political crises and interethnic tensions in North Macedonia. For more than two decades, a U.S. diplomat led United Nations–brokered negotiations between Greece and then-Macedonia to resolve their bilateral dispute over the latter’s use of the name Macedonia. With strong U.S. support, in 2018 North Macedonia and Greece reached the landmark Prespa Agreement, which resulted in the name change and resolved their bilateral dispute. Many Members of Congress have supported North Macedonia’s integration into Euro-Atlantic institutions. In 2007, the NATO Freedom Consolidation Act (P.L. 110-17) was passed to affirm congressional support for enlargement and make North Macedonia eligible for assistance under the NATO Participation Act of 1994. Resolutions were also sponsored in both chambers in 2018 to support the Prespa Agreement with Greece and endorse North Macedonia’s bid for NATO membership. Congressional interest in North Macedonia is also connected to broader policy concerns over the influence of Russia, China, and other external actors in the Western Balkans. In 2017, North Macedonia emerged from a destabilizing two-year crisis with a new government that pledged to redouble the country’s Euro-Atlantic integration efforts and enact reforms to tackle the corruption and state capture that took root under previous governments.
