After two days of sharp discussion, the EU Council of Ministers cancelled the debate on setting Macedonia a date for negotiation talks for a period of six months until the Spanish presidency. EU Diplomatic sources says that this is because Greek pressure. President Gjorge Ivanov stated Monday that Macedonia wants to become a part of Europe but not at all cost and that we will not give in to pressures for a name change. Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski is unsatisfied by the outcome from Brussels’ meeting which according to him was a sophisticated variant of Bucharest. “We are Macedonians and we want to become EU members as Macedonians,” stated Gruevski at the Tuesday forum “New Era of the Balkans” in Brussels. Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Milososki described this as a new-blockade Greek hypocrisy. The opposition is disappointed by the Government concerning the name issue. SDSM leader Branko Crvenkovski stated Tuesday that we should not miss this chance to solve the name issue. NSDP leader Tito Petkovski stated that he will not comment Macedonia’s foreign policy as long as Gruevski is the Prime Minister and does not come to his senses.
