BELORUS RECOGNISES MACEDONIA
Skopje. Belorus (formely Belorussia) has officially recognised
Macedonia, according to a statement issued by the Macedonian
Foreign Ministry.
 
GREECE USES DIRTY TRICKS
Skopje. The Macedonian Defence Ministry has denied claims made
by the Greek operated "Macedonian news agency" that the chief of
staff of the Macedonian Army, General Mitre Arsovski, had said
that elite units were ready to liberate Macedonia's brothers in
neighbouring states.
The MDM said that Greece was trying to damage Macedonia's chance
for international recognition by using dirty tricks.
The Greek Foreign Ministry, in relation to the alleged Arsovski
statement, claimed that "(Macedonian President) Gligorov can no
longer manipulate world opinion that Macedonia doesn't have
territorial ambitions on neighbouring states."
 
OIL DELIVERY BEGINS
Skopje. Oil recently purchased by Macedonia has left the northern
Greek port of Salonica. Thirty-five tonnes are expected to arrive
in the republic in the next 10 days or so. This Greek
"concession" has come about because of European Community
pressure.
 
MAZOWIECKI: "MORE ALBANIANS MUST ENTER STATE INSTITUTIONS"
Skopje. The United Nations special rapporteur on human rights in
the former Yugoslavia, Tadeusz Mazowiecki, said he was satisfied
with his fact-finding mission to Macedonia, which ended
yesterday.
He said "the most important aspect about human rights is the need
for peace, which means conflict musn't be brought into here
(Macedonia)." He added "problems always exist, not so much with
Macedonia's laws or constitution, but rather with the practical
implementation." The former Polish Prime Minister said that there
had to be more Albanians and other nationalities involved in
state institutions, and that problems with minorities could be
solved through dialogue. He said "the most important thing is
that Macedonia has the good will to do that."
 
LETTER TO BOUTROS-GHALI (1)
Skopje. The Macedonian World Congress from Florida, United
States, has sent a letter to the United Nations Secretary-
General, Dr Boutros Boutros-Ghali.
The letter goes on to say "...we want to thank you for your 
engagement in the resolution, of the controversy regarding
recognition of the Republic of Macedonia...we would like to ask
for your support of the application of the Republic of Macedonia
in the United Nations.
"The solution of the crisis in the Balkans lies in peaceful and
neighbourly cooperation, mutual respect for existing borders and
the willingness of each country; be they members of the UN or
not; to respect the UN Charter and international law. The
Republic of Macedonia has engaged on that course by applying for
membership in the UN and accepting the obligations contained in
its charter and by solemnly undertaking to fulfil them."
 
LETTER TO BOUTROS-GHALI (2)
Melbourne. The Australian-based Macedonian Human Rights Committee
of Melbourne and Victoria has sent an appeal to the UN Secretary
General, Dr Boutros Boutros-Ghali, urging the international
organisation accept Macedonia's application for membership.
The President of MHRCMV, Aco Talevski, said "it is time for the
world community to stop bowing to Greek pressure and respect the
rights of the people of Macedonia for self-determination and
self-identification." 
He added: "...the Macedonian people have done nothing to
contribute to the mindless and horrific war inspired by the
extreme right wing nationalists of the other former Yugoslav
republics, which, if not stopped could bring unseen catastrophy
to the whole of the Balkan region and Europe at large." 
Talevski pointed out that the Republic is on the brink of
economic disaster with a shortage of food, fuel, medicine and
other essential items, because of the Greek and Serbo-Yugoslav
blockade, and UN sanctions against Belgrade.
 
LE MONDE INTERVIEWS GHALI ON MACEDONIA
Paris. UN Secretary-General, Dr Boutros Boutros-Ghali, has given
an interview to the influential French newspaper, Le Monde, on
the issue of Macedonia's application for UN membership.
He explained that the UN Security Council can only issue
recommendations, and if a nation wants to become a UN member it
must gain approval from the UN General Assembly, which is made
up of over 100 countries. He said Greece would not change its
position on Macedonia, because it had problems with Greek public
opinion. He said the UN's role was not discover why Greece had
a problem, but to resolve the problem.
 
TELEPHONE NEWS IN MACEDONIAN LANGUAGE
Paris. From January 9, the Macedonian Information Centre in Paris
will begin its telephone news service in the Macedonian language.
The service operates from 7.00 in the evening till 10.00 in the
morning. The telephone number is (1) 48-07-25-97.
