MIA - Macedonian Information Agency -

A delegation from the U.S. House of Representatives, which pays a visit to the Republic of Macedonia, is set to meet Thursday with President Gjorge Ivanov, Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski, and MPs.

On Friday, the U.S. delegation will meet Parliament Speaker Trajko Veljanoski and visit Gazi Baba municipality, where a joint project is being implemented.

The delegation includes congressmen David Dreier, David Price, Jim McDermott, Erik Paulsen and Gerry Connolly, who visit Macedonia within programme "House Democratic Partnership".

Some of them were among the 54 members of the U.S. House of Representatives, who sent a bipartisan letter to President Barack Obama, strongly urging his administration "to make sure that NATO finally offers the Republic of Macedonia its well-deserved formal invitation to join the Alliance during the Chicago Summit," on May 20-21.

Members of Congress called on the President to stand by his words at the 2009 NATO Summit in Strasbourg/Kehl, when President Obama stated, "I look forward to the day when we can welcome Macedonia to the Alliance. The door to membership will remain open for other countries that meet NATO's standards and can make a meaningful contribution to allied security."

U.S. congressmen meet with President Ivanov: NATO membership is of great importance
MIA - Macedonian Information Agency - U.S. congressmen meet with President Ivanov: NATO membership is of great importance -

Skopje, 5 April 2012 (MIA) - President Gjorge Ivanov met Thursday with a delegation of the U.S. House of Representatives, including congressmen David Dreier, David Price, Jim McDermott, Erik Paulsen and Gerry Connolly.

President Ivanov at the meeting said the congressmen's visit was of great importance since it was paid in an extremely important period for Macedonia and its strategic goals, his cabinet said in a press release.

The members of the U.S. House of Representatives reaffirmed their support for Macedonia's Euro-Atlantic integration bid and their readiness to further strengthen the partnership and cooperation with the House of Representatives, in particularly through the House Democracy Partnership (HDP). Expressing gratitude for Macedonia's participation in peace missions, they said that Macedonia's integration to NATO was of primary importance, because it would send a positive impulse in the entire region and expand the zone of stability and security.

The President informed the congressmen on current developments in Macedonia, the efforts made to change the status quo with regard to Euro-Atlantic integration and on future expectations. President Ivanov thanked for the continuous support and strategic partnership with the United States founded on values and ideas, identical visions and partnership.

The letter sent by 54 members of the U.S. House of Representatives to President Barack Obama has upheld the friendship between the two countries and the move has been hailed by the citizens of Macedonia.

The U.S. congressmen were briefed on the judgement of the International Court of Justice, which is a confirmation of Macedonia's legitimate policy. Ahead of the upcoming NATO summit in Chicago, the President expressed hopes that as a result of the judgement, NATO members would rethink their positions regarding Macedonia.

Talks also focused on the bilateral name dispute imposed by neighbouring Greece. President Ivanov reiterated that Macedonia maintained its constructive approach and commitment to the process aimed at finding a mutually acceptable name solution, which required good will and accountable approach by Greece, stated the press release.

Topalli: Shkupin e çliruan shqiptarët, reagojnë maqedonasit

Kryeparlamentarja shqiptare Jozefina Topalli në fjalimin e saj të mbajtur në Kuvendin e Republikës së Maqedonisë mes të tjerash ka thënë se Shkupin të parët e kishin çliruar shqiptarët, kurse Shkupi, Dibra dhe Manastiri ishin bërë qendra të lëvizjes shqiptare.

"Ndodhi pikërisht në shkurt të vitit 1844, kur 10 mijë kryengritës në udhëheqjen e Dervish Carës e kishin çliruar Shkupin dhe shtruan kërkesën për autonomi. Nga kjo kohë, Shkupi, Manastiri dhe Dibra ishin disa prej qendrave të lëvizjes shqiptare për çlirim, raporton “Zhurnali”. Lëvizja patriotike shqiptare është zhvilluar paralelisht me kryengritjen maqedonase të Ilindenit në 2 gusht 1903, ku në Manastir ishte përkrahur edhe nga popullata shqiptare, e cila ishte aktive për krijimin e republikës së Krushevës, ku Këshilli i udhëhequr nga shqiptari Vangjel Dino ishte përbërë nga përfaqësues të maqedonasve, shqiptarëve dhe vllehve", tha Topalli.

Megjithatë kundër kësaj deklarate të nxehtë, kanë reaguar historianët maqedonas. "Ajo që e flet Topalli është thjesht politikë dhe jo shkencë. Kryengritësit as që e kanë çliruar Shkupin, as që ka pasur 10 mijë ushtarë, as që ka pasur kërkesë për autonomi. Këto pohime të Topallit nuk janë në asnjë dokument turk, ose të shkresave diplomatike franceze ose britanike", theksojnë historianë maqedonas për TV "Kanal 5" që nuk kanë pranuar të flasin publikisht.

Kryetarja e Kuvendit të Shqipërisë është zyrtarja e parë nga Shqipëria e cila i prek këto tema të cilat shpeshherë kanë qenë temë e debateve ndërmjet historianëve maqedonas dhe atyre shqiptarë në Maqedoni.

Sipas historianëve maqedonas Shkupi është qytet i maqedonasve dhe Republika e Krushevës është vetëm angazhim i kryengritësve maqedonas dhe që atëherë datojnë rrënjët e Maqedonisë si shtet.

Pohimet e Topallit konsiderohen edhe si një përgjigje direkte diplomatike ndaj enciklopedisë maqedonase e cila shqiptarët i quajti njerëz të egër të cilët kanë zbritur nga malet në këto troje dhe janë ardhacakë.

Macedonia Can Protect NATO's Tent, but Can't Sleep in it

Thursday, 05 April 2012
MINA Breaking News
The central pillar of NATO – the enlargement and strengthening of the alliance – has fallen off the Chicago summit agenda. This must be remedied. When countries such as Macedonia, which have met all necessary requirements and continually contribute to the alliance’s collective defense, are denied access, it weakens the core regional goals of security, stability, and prosperity, says Sally Painter, CEO at Blue Star Strategies, in an article published in U.S. congressional paper "The Hill".

"With the ICJ ruling, the legal and political path is clear to complete Macedonia’s accession, and that would in itself place pressure on Greece to accept a compromise solution and put to rest a poisonous ethnic dispute. Such a step would reaffirm NATO’s commitment to strengthening the alliance – which, as the secretary general himself writes, must be “an alliance that is constantly changing to meet the security challenges of today and tomorrow.” The Summit in Chicago is the time and place for the NATO allies to show leadership and readiness for enlargement and an “open door” policy for all qualifying members", says Painter.

She recalls that the North Atlantic Treaty provides that any European state that qualifies for membership and that can contribute to the alliance’s security is eligible for membership, whereas Macedonia is highly qualified on both of these fronts.
"It has long contributed to NATO’s joint security, participating in the regional peace missions in 1999 as well as the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. It completed its Membership Action Plan in 2008 – normally the final step before admission – before it was blocked by a Greek veto", says Painter.

According to her, the International Court of Justice has flatly and in an overwhelming fashion (15-1) stated that the naming issue cannot be used as a pretext to deny Macedonia membership – and yet Secretary General Rasmussen has maintained that the decision changes nothing, and that Macedonia’s accession can come only after the resolution of that dispute. Which, practically speaking, puts the accession process on hold for the foreseeable future.

"So why the foot dragging? Delay in enlargement could have negative impact on regional stability and raise troubling questions about the institutional health of the alliance. Denying Macedonia sets a dangerous precedent for other regional rivalries that one country can indefinitely filibuster the entrance of another. This could prove to be an incentive for holding the NATO accession process hostage to bilateral grievances. NATO should be a force for binding European nations ever closer together through mutual sacrifice and mutual interests, this position has the opposite effect", underlines analyst Sally Painter in article.
