Albanianization in Macedonia

[Niko777]

We know Skopje is not half Albanian, but unfortunately once somebody goes there they are left with the impression that it is. Especially when tourists are sent to the Stara Carsija (why Macedonia is so proud of this area I will never know, I would never go into the Carsija never mind sending tourists there.) Albanian flags and signs, mosques, and the Muslim women with head scarfs really stand out.

struga ...

[George S.]

Our twn our rules struga that say's it all they have no respect for macedonians that it was theirs it is still theirs .The option uis there if you don't like it leave.Majority of macedonians rule macedonia.

[United MKD]

Struga will never be another Tetovo or Gostivar, keep dreaming shiptars.

If a real desire exists for this to happen, the ethnic Albanians will do it. It will take a real desire from the Macedonians to ensure this does not happen. I'm not too sure about the real desires of Macedonians lately.

[George S.]

how are they going to top them when they are pandering all the time to them.
Also the albanians are taking over whole villages.Me thinks they are unstoppable.If other countries have laws against buying land or houses if you not native to the land only to lease it. Then there are no ownership laws in the constitution of albanians in macedonia are there???

[Risto the Great]

George, ethnic Albanians of Macedonia should always have rights as Macedonian citizens. The right to purchase land in their own country is perfectly normal and nobody seriously would seek to deny them of this. But the Framework Agreement is far more insidious and destructive than anybody in Macedonia seems prepared to admit.

The speaker of the Macedonian Parliament has visited Kosovo again. It seems as though every week Macedonian politicians are holding meetings or collaborations with either Albanian or Kosovar diplomats. I have never seen such strong feelings of friendship towards any other people but the Albanians. The level of cooperation is sickening, why don't they just create a federation or political union called "Alkomac" or "Alkofyrom" or the "Club for the most backwards people of Europe". That way they can function together on a daily basis.

Instead of Macedonia acting as a mother state for Macedonianminorities in Aegean or Pirin Macedonia, it is only looking towards Albania and Kosovo and catering to the nationalist needs of its Albanian minority.

Niko, this relationship is being dictated by greater powers sovereignty is an illusion for most nations in the world, particularly Macedonia

whatever happened to the idea that the albanians wanted their own passports.Maybe someone had the decency to say no.

Their own passports in what way? As far as I know, any minority can specially request to have their language added to the required Macedonian/English on the passports.

[George S.]

Pro MK the albanians wanted their own albanian passports similar to ones like saying macedonian passports.They wanted their own with albania written on them how ridiculous.Now that they are in i thought maybe they might request them.In other words they want a country within a country.There was a time when they wanted to issue their own passports.THe authorities saw the good sense to say no.

Is that standard practice in other countries?

[Risto the Great]

You can't compare Macedonia to other countries.
Macedonia is unique in that it it is a country but it can't self-determine anything.

Nothing to be proud of and non-Macedonians couldn't care less. Most Macedonians in Macedonia couldn't care less as well.

ДУИ ќе бара пари од владата за одбележување на јубилејни датуми од историјата на Албанија. Прославата на 100 годишнината од албанското знаме и независноста на соседната држава ќе почне утре, со поставувањето на камен темелник на плоштадот Скендер бег во Скопје, а во координација со владите на Албанија и Косово, речиси половина година ќе се организираат и бројни семинари, конференции, собири и поетски читања.

-Уште на правиме програмата, кога ќе биде готова, ќе го направиме и финансискиот план, ќе побараме финансиски средства од владата, изјави вицепремиерот Муса Џафери.

Заедно со Ахмети, утре лопата ќе фрли и градоначалникот на Тирана, Љујзим Баша. Лидерот на ДУИ најави дека ќе бара денот на албанското знаме да биде прогласен за празник на албанската заедница во Македонија.
