Rasmussen: Solution of name, condition for Macedonia’s NATO accession

In an interview given to Europe based media, the Secretary General of NATO Anders Fogh Rasmussen declared that the solution of Macedonia’s name issue is still a condition for NATO membership to the country. Rasmussen said that there is no change of opinion that the change will come after a plausible solution found by Athens and Skopje.


“In 2008 there was a willingness to start the preliminary talks provided that Greece and Macedonia find a plausible solution to the problem of the name. Unfortunately there has been no improvement in this direction and the decision we made four years ago is still valid”, Rasmussen is quoted as saying.
