My apologies for the thread mine, I thought it was a good idea to post here than start a new thread.
I've been thinking out loud over the course of today and have been pondering a few things regarding the "Букурешки договор" and the aftermath of its expiration in August 2013.
To begin with, I haven't been able to find a complete, unadulterated version of the treaty. Searching the various libraries I have access to has yielded the sum total of zero nor have my trawlings in cyberspace been fruitful. Does anyone have links and/or other resources with the treaty details? I have found this, but am not sure it is an accurate nor complete translation of the original French document:
With the treaty now having been expired for 18 months or so, who thinks that the Greeks, Bulgarians and Albanians will hand back their portions of Macedonia, resulting in the reformation of a complete Macedonia? Or will reformation only come about from yet another Balkan war?Last edited by kompir; 03-17-2015, 02:15 AM.Доста бе Вегето една, во секоја манџа се мешаш

Dedo had this to say about the treaty of Bucharest:

I have lost track but I think the Bucharest Treaty is not even valid right now and has been replaced-reaffirmed or re-adjusted by later (post WW2) Treaties.

This is the 2005 book by Risto Stefov, in which he clarifies he's not talking seriously "Recovering Macedonia : expiration of the Bucharest Treaty of 1913"
This is more serious by some Professor Dr. Vanche Stojchev "The Treaty of Bucharest is Permanent and Has No Expiry Date". Weirdly enough this is translated by Stefov!!

Well I am near enough to hitting the big four zero, so that would put the timeframe that I first learned of the treaty as being the late 1980's. I wasn't aware of the PDF you linked above from Risto Stefov.
Being born and raised in Australia, it certainly wasn't as part of the regular curriculum. All throughout my school years, we had a dedicated Macedonian class, once or twice a week at a minimum (teachers with foresight and an understanding that most of the children were of Macedonian extraction led to said classes). In sixth grade, we were taught Macedonian history in said classes by a rather well educated teacher who had more than a slight patriotic leaning.Last edited by kompir; 03-18-2015, 04:33 PM.Доста бе Вегето една, во секоја манџа се мешаш
