Countries that recognize Macedonia

[Rogi]

Sarafot, we are well aware of how many countries recognise our Constitutional name. That list was something to begin with, something to be populated further, to end up with the complete list of 124 (which cannot be found anywhere, and is that is because it is the official policy of the Government not to release that list)

Happy new year nashio, if you know of more details in respect to the list of countries that have recognized the Macedonian Republic, please share them here and we will update the list.

From what i understand every east european country (except for albania) recognizes ROM, as does every former soviet country, most of the middle east and central asia. I believe nearly all of africa and South America does as well.

"Kosova" did recognize macedonia, but in the end their recognition doesn’t hold too much weight because they are not in the UN.

So realistically its all of Western Europe, Australia, Japan and a few more others that are left. I think western europe should be our next "target". If we could get say Italy and germany to recognize macedonia then i think that would be it, every one else will follow.

Thank you SoM. I'm sure everyone had a safe New Year night and didn't drink too much :P

I for one cannot say this as I stumbled out of the Marakana Kafana at 5:30am and plodded across the park covered with snow back to my apartment steps (just couldn't make it into my door). ~_~

Here is to a prosperous and hapy new year to all of us and Macedonia!

Ok, so that is about half of the countries that recognise us by our rightful name. I have some friends who work in the government and I will ask them if they can provide me a list with the rest of the countries.

Thanks Six Guns, if you could make some inquiries to increase the list then that would be excellent.

Sounds like you had a good time for new years, убо се испијанче изгледа

I say that Republic of Macedonia should continue to insist on it's constitutional name in front of the international society. If the word "East Albania" appears in the name of Republic of Macedonia, this means, all the lands from Skopje to Debar and Struga to become part of Albania. And I don't want the hometown of my grandmother to become part of Shipteria! And this would be traitory to the people, the Macedonians and the memory of the heroes that stood for the liberation of these lands from Ottoman Rule.

The only possible compromise, that won't hurt nobody would be Republik Vardar Macedonia, because it's geographically correct. Also as I recall the name of Vardar river is included in many Macedonian songs. "More sokol pie voda na Vardaro."

[Rogi]

NiGhtPiSH, why do I get the sense that you're a Greek?

You realise for 'Vardar' to be entirely accurate, the Republic of Macedonia would also need to control the entire river sub-basin.

Here's a map for you. Look closely:

The less Greek lands, the better. They have only gays and ugly hairy women.

[Orovnichanec]

Thanks for the list Six Guns!

What a stupid comment.
Are you always this stupid?
How do comments like this promote dialogue?

Thats the Wikepedia article i was telling you guys about, it is incorrect. No western europen country recognizes macedonia as ROM. Do you honestly think the UK, with its greek prince and pro greek attitude would recognize macedonia? If the UK did recognize macedonia then you would have australia have recognize macedonia in a heart beat. The UK and Austria use ROM when dealing with us, but technically we are still "FYROM" with them. And as others have stated Sweeden and Norway have not recognized macedonia as ROM and still use "FYROM".

[Rogi]

Big Bad Sven,

The UK does recognise Macedonia under the Constitutional name for all Bilateral purposes as have other EU nations.
