A large gathering of 150,000 people yesterday in Skopje’s centre square, celebrating the nation’s European Cup Handball win, turned into a rally where supporters of the VMRO party and former Prime Minister Gruevski, screamed “Thessaloniki is ours.”
Flying flags with the Vergina Sun, the large groups shouted slogans about Greece, claiming Thessaloniki belongs to them.
The country’s new Prime Minister Zoran Zayev, has however kept his distance from Gruevski’s party, reiterating that he does not want to challenge Greece in the “Macedonia” naming issue.
The new new PM also said in a television interview that he wants to have “good relations with Greece and all their neighbouring countries”, which came hours after a phone call from Greece’s own Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, congratulating him on his election victory.
