Just days before an historic visit by Greece’s foreign minister to FYROM, Athens has sent text of an agreement to the Skopje government.
Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias, who is due to visit Skopje on Thursday, said he sent the text of the agreement “days ago.”
He added that the document “consists of the entirety of our proposals concerning the open problems we have with FYROM as well as a future agenda for cooperation that will benefit both sides.”
Greek media report that the proposals on the table are the following:
- Republika Nova Makedonija (Republic of New Macedonia)
- Republika Severna Makedonija (Republic of Northern Macedonia)
- Republika Gorna Makedonija (Republic of Upper Macedonia)
- Republika Vardarska Makedonija (Republic of Macedonia of Vardar)
- Republika Makedonija (Skopje) [Republic of Macedonia (Skopje)]
On Monday, FYROM’s Prime Minister Zoran Zaev said he wanted the name dispute to be resolved by summer.
He also claimed that this is the timetable agreed by Greece.
