The Greek foreign ministry issued a statement this week responding to an announcement by the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski's office after his meeting in Skopje earlier in the day with United Nations SG Ban Ki-moon. "Greece has repeatedly and effectively showed its readiness for the finding of a solution to the (fYRoM's) name issue, in the framework of negotiations, as defined by UN Security Council resolutions and as underlined by the Hague International Court," the statement of the Greek foreign ministry noted. "Mr. Gruevski welcomed the formation of the new Greek government with insulting attacks and unfounded accusations. Our side does not enter in the logic of artificial crises which Mr. Gruevski is trying to provoke for internal reasons. We say the self-evident: that for achieving a solution, the government of Greece is searching for a reliable and sincere interlocutor. This is what Skopje ought to prove by acts," the statement added. (AMNA)
