UNITED NATIONS BID PUT IN MOTION
Skopje. The President of the United Nations Security Council,
Japanese ambassador, Yoshio Hatano, has announced that the formal
procedure to consider Macedonia's application for UN membership
has been put into affect.
The UN Secretary General, Dr Boutros-Ghali, is expected to send
Macedonia's application to the Ambassador Hatano and all members
of the world body.

GREEK PRESS: MACEDONIA IS BEST NAME!
Skopje. The Greek press has recently speculated on what name is
suitable for Macedonia to gain UN membership. The influential
newspaper, Kathimerini, regards "Slavo-Macedonia" or Macedonia
with a geographical prefix as worse than Macedonia's existing
name--Republic of Macedonia. The Greek paper writes: "that name
(existing one) historically belongs to the territory which Greece
could not 'liberate' during the Balkan Wars."

GREEK LEFT: DON'T RUSH TO RECOGNISE MACEDONIA
Skopje. The President of the coalition of Greek leftists and
progressive forces, Maria Damanaki, said after her return from
a visit to Sofia, the Bulgarian capital, that "quick recognition
of Macedonia by the UN wasn't in the interest of peace in the
Balkan region." She said that the European Community was still
capable of finding a solution; and that "Skopje (Greek euphemism
for Macedonia) should change its constitution, so that it could
use ethnic minorities in neighbouring states."

WASHINGTON POST: BUSH GAVE INTO GREEKS
Skopje. Respected American newspaper, The Washington Post, has
criticised former US President George Bush for giving into Greek
pressure by agreeing to stop the admittance of Macedonia into the
UN. The paper writes that Athens warned the Bush administration
that recognition of Macedonia would have brought down the pro-
American Greek regime of Constantine Mitsotakis, and that the
anti-US left would have taken power in Athens.

ITALY WANTS MACEDONIA QUESTION RESOLVED
Skopje. Italy has pledged that it would raise an initiative
within the EC over recognition of Macedonia, should the UN fail
to accept the republic into its ranks, according to the Rome
correspondent of the Nova Makedonija newspaper.
