The Greek Foreign Minister, Nikos Kotzias, declared that Greece is determined to resolve suspended problems with northern neighbours.
“2018 is the year when we will find a solution to the problems with our neighbours, which have been suspended for decades. We discussed problems with Albania, which saw positive steps recently, and also about the name issue with Skopje”, Kotzias declared.
His government coalition partner, Panos Kamenos, who provoked a government crisis a few days ago, after stating that they will not accept any solution for their northern neighbour that could contain the name “Macedonia” in it, expressed his optimism about the negotiation platform with Greece’s northern neighbours, Albania and Macedonia.
While relations with Albania are warmer after both Foreign Minister met in Crete, Athens’ optimism about Skopje is based on a recent decision of the Prime Minister of Macedonia, Zoran Zaev, to withdraw from the harsh stance regarding the naming of FYROM.
