Maybe you should read this link How many countries recognized Macedonia under its constitutional name Just 16 of the countries use the artificial reference FYROM Even they except Greece and Cyprus in the direct contacts with Macedonia use its constitutional name example Germany Netherlands Italy Spain etc Also the parlaments of the United Kingdom Germany and Italy Greek allies in the EU already recomended their goverments to recognise the constitutional name of Macedonia You can also see what even some parlaimentary members in Greece say about the dispute here Even some of them see that the Greek position is ridiculous So it is not what Bush says It is what the world says
