You need to understand that to Macedonians the Macedonian name is everything and a matter of rights!!! which is true, but to a lot of people around the world, it's Not that important and your 'right's fall way down the list compared to money/gain and 'what's in it for me', so all the bitching about rights counts to some people and nothing more than a 'hill of beans' to others, yet they are the ones getting a vote at the UN, which to some extent, determines Macedonia's future. So how does Macedonia get them to vote for her? That's why the EU.
Some countries know Macedonia is a fertile land of intelligent eager young people (mind you, thanks to the governments education policies ie re numbers of Uni applicants shooting up from 60's percent to 98 percent - everything counts towards the battle for the name, even if it doesn't immediately look like it) and that the governments low taxation laws and other financial policies (ie articles praising Macedonia being high in the investment index) and stable government/country means Macedonia (if in the EU) would be an excellent 'back-door' to getting your goods into the EU in a more profitable way (eg China plans to build a computer assembly factory in Macedonia to cater for the EU market -how big is that again?), so if there is money to be made for You out of Macedonia getting in the EU, how do you help/act to get Macedonia in the EU. Tante za tante.
Greece's strongest weapon has been Veto to keep Macedonia out of the EU and NATO. Why do you think they wont let Macedonia in the EU, even as FYROM, even if it means contravening the IA (see where the ICJ is coming into the picture) - "give us the name or die bitch"? But what if there was no "die" because you were already in the EU, albeit as FYROM? - jadimi lajnata.
Macedonia is well on the way of getting all the numbers in the UN - how much more could she get from being inside the EU?
That's why I have said before, sometimes it is easier to solve a problem from inside than out - so how do you get inside?
People on this site go on about rights, yet I have given you an answer with a number of paragraphs - how many time did I use rights? Maybe because they don't matter as much as some people seem to think - but I have rights - so what!
