130 countries have recognised Macedonia only 13 that are still using the other reference
and 65 without diplomatic relations, what are we waiting for..?
Well the name negotiations are UN sanctioned aren't they? So Macedonia has the right to ask the members to put and end to it and two thirds will now say yes to that motion!
This is great news. I think there are 193 un recognised countries hence 130 makes 67.36 percent of countries who could vote at the un would vote for RoM. Does anyone know how many we need to put it to a un vote and get recognised and dump the whole name negotiation thing.
President Mugabe yesterday met Macedonian Prime Minister Nikola Grueski on the sidelines of the Africa-EU Summit at the Rixos Convention Centre
In an interview after the meeting, PM Grueski said they had discussed ways of enhancing mutual co-operation.
“We discussed co-operation in the African Union, with the European countries and of course all the potential we have to exploit in Zimbabwe,” he said.
In 1919 at the Paris Peace Conference, the Council of Ten considered the question of Finland's recognition as a State. The Japanese representative at the Conference argued that recognition of Finland should be qualified by certain "conditions" which it must fulfill before recognition is granted.
Secretary Lansing, speaking for the Council insisted that:
A nation is entitled to recognition of her independence, and her government is equally entitled to recognition as a de facto or de jure government, as a matter of right, and it is not justificable to put conditions on such a recognition simply to serve some political purpose.
Recognition in International Law, by H. Lauterpacht, (Cambridge, 1947), p. 362
I think that the lesson here is that the Macedonians are the ones putting conditions on their recognition (by negotiating), when they should be demanding it as their legal and historical right.
Any UN country that recognizes us is good news, i think South Africa and Zimbabwe are countries we should open bilateral relations with. South Korea is another country that we should establish diplomatic relations, we got North Korea but not South Korea it doesnt make any sense.
Wow, it must of been hard to get North Korea to recognize Macedonia.

All these countries not recognizing macedonia are stupid & wrong.Why because there is such a thing as self identification.We haven't taken anything from greece it's the other way around they are taking it from us.I's funny how greece has laid claim to aegean macedonia in 1913 & took it by force.When the truth is out that greece had never before set foot in macedonia before.All the more for the world to tell greece to get a life & let macedonia live.
It looks that way Gjorgjija, but we can never know for sure. We saw what happened after Syria recognized us, there was an uproar in Greece and they started all sorts of protests against Syria maybe our Governement wants to keep this low profile?? The Greek Government would surly know about it, its just a matter of the Greek Public finding out.
