Gov’t handling of FYROM name issue ‘irresponsible’, says ND spokeswoman




Main opposition New Democracy (ND) spokeswoman Maria Spyraki sternly attacked the government on its handling of the FYROM name issue during a press briefing on Thursday, saying it was handling a crucial issue on terms of domestic political confrontation.

The way the government is handling the issue was irresponsible, Spyraki said, adding: “The opposition parties were not informed, the processes were set into motion without them and now it is too late for such a briefing.”

Spyraki reiterated that ND’s position is clear: The minimum for the government is the Greek position presented at Bucharest (at the NATO summit of 2008) and the proposed solution must be a package that includes the name, the range of its usage – in relations with everyone – and Skopje’s irredentist views.
