- Prime Minister Gruevski condemned the incident in Ohrid when the name of Macedonia was sprayed on a few Greek tourist buses and said there was no need for Greece to appeal to its citizens not to come to Macedonia. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs assessed as exaggerated the Greek reaction and rejected the allegations that the spraying of the buses was a result of the nationalism and lack of tolerance of the incumbent Government toward Greece. The Ministry appealed that the isolated incident in Macedonia, as well as the tens of others in Greece, the victims of which were Macedonian citizens, should not be abused for pursuing political goals.
