The Republic of Macedonia will gladly host mediator Matthew Nimetz and his two colleagues - the special representatives of Macedonia and Greece in the name dispute talks - in January next year, Macedonian Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki told MIA regarding Mr. Nimetz's previous statement that he intended to hold another meeting with the Macedonian and Greek negotiators, Nikola Dimitrov and Adamantios Vassilakis, in Macedonia after the Christmas holidays.

"Mr. Nimetz's idea is good. We support his encouragement of our Greek friends for holding bilateral meetings and meetings on ministerial level more frequently," Minister Milososki said. The Republic of Macedonia, he said, is ready to make its contribution to this bilateral dialogue.
