A clip from a speech by Nikolaos Michaloliakos, leader of Golden Dawn.
A transcript follows:
“Because I don’t believe in secret diplomacy and because it’s been written much in the newspapers that during the visit of the Prime Minister to the United States, Skopje's accession to NATO was agreed on, I will make reference to a letter which was sent to me by the Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Kotzias and which states: “Regarding the pending name issue of the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, as I mentioned during the National Council on Foreign Policy meeting, the Greek side is working consistently. In this context and following the exchange of views which we had with the representatives of the parties at the last meeting, I would be pleased to know your party's views on specific names.”
Golden Dawn has a particularly clear and unambiguous position, which, unfortunately, betraying her voters, the majority of her voters, New Democracy didn’t have during the previous government of the country.
No compromises for our Macedonia!
The name Macedonia belongs to Greek history, neither a composite name, secondary or anything!
And if the Government decides to proceed with such a solution, they may have with them New Democracy, PASOK and the other parties, as they did on August 14th. They will, however, have against them the vast majority of the Greek people.”
Golden Dawn’s position on our Macedonian name is clear; it belongs to the Greeks and no one else!
