    The Greeks blocked the Macedonian National Federation in Sweden

    Macedonian National Federation (MRF) reacted with dismay and astonishment at the SIOS, Agency for Cooperation of ethnic organizations in Sweden, has decided on its annual session
    rejecting the MRF's application for membership in this organization.

    SIOS has done so on the basis that it would be offensive to grant the MRF's application when the Greek National Federation object, the MRF's name!
    According SIOS office, was reluctance and resistance to the MRF's membership of the Greek National Association page.
    Greek representatives in SIOS had objected to the name of Macedonian National Federation bears since 1992 - Makedonsika National Federation in Sweden! - SIOS decision to reject the Macedonian National Association of application, we can not interpret in any other way than as a political statement on the matter related to the long-standing Greek-makedonsika dispute in the Balkans, " said Jovan Bozinovski, chairman of the MRF.

    The SIOS Platform 2009-2012 explicitly states that "SIOS overall objective of activities includes three focus areas: Language, culture and identity, development and democracy and equality and diversity? Are they really there?
    SIOS So writes on his website www.sios.se but what makes it, when they choose to ignore democratic principles and give way to Greek irrational demands which in fact has nothing to do with SIOS business?

    MRF believes that SIOS has taken an undemocratic, shameful and sad decision which brings discomfort and disappointment. Drför MRF has decided to withdraw the application for medlmeskap of SIOS! Makedonsika National Federation has informed the integration and jmställdhetsministern Nyamko Sabuni and Youth Board on our behavior.

    What a retarded move of the Greeks in Sweden, this will only backlash on them.
    This is racism and it is not looked upon with kind eyes by the Swedish authorities.
    They have shot themselves in the foot.

      From what I've read here, SIOS is a Swedish Agency that has accepted the Greek POV. Do Macedonians enjoy recognition and rights in Sweden? And can they take legal proceedings against discrimination?
