Macedonian Foreign Ministry calls in Greek Ambassador Alexandra Papadopoulou for talks on Monday due to anti-Macedonian chants at the military parade in Athens. At the meeting with Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Zoran Petrov, Papadopoulou will be presented with a protest note and formal apology will be asked, confirmed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Government spokesperson Martin Martinovski said that the manifestation of hate speech does not contribute in building good-neighborly relations. On Friday, during a march, Greek soldiers chanted "They are Skopians, they are Albanians, we will make new clothes out of their skins”.
