Man, I wish Alexander would come back from the dead to whoop many asses all over again. Greeks, Persians, Serbians.

Glad to see they are fixing the 'big' issues. A corrupt and failed economy can surely wait

Can we change the name of United States and re-join Nato if Trump pulls us out?

The Latest: Greek parliament vote on Macedonia deal delayedATHENS, Greece (AP) — The Latest on the name dispute between Greece and Macedonia (all times local): 5:40 p.m. The Greek parliament speaker's office says a vote to ratify a deal with neighboring Macedonia to change that country's name to normalize relations and allow it to join NATO has been pushed back to Friday. The delay aims to accommodate the large number of lawmakers who want to speak during the debate. The vote had been scheduled to take place late Thursday night, but the office said there would not have been enough time to allow everyone registered to speak to have a turn on the podium. Under the agreement signed last year, Macedonia will change its name to North Macedonia and Greece will drop its objections to the country's accession to NATO, ending a nearly three decade-long dispute. But the deal faces strong opposition in both countries. I hope they understand joining NATO comes a yearly membership fee. They should change the name to “nobody cares” Si desean amigos griegos o macedonios simple pónganle una letra mas como la gran macedonia o algo mejor póngale Esparta

Is Greek nationalism threatening the Macedonian name change agreement?Macedonia has made great strides to meet Greek concerns over its name, for Greece this isn't enough with the agreement now threatening to bring down the Tsipras government. LukeDCoffey I guess news is hurting when you need LukeDCoffey to write an article for you guys. Might as well get Ronald McDonald to make one too. LukeDCoffey Greece’s “petulant behavior” to protect itself from their loving neighbor north of Macedonia is unfounded and ridiculous. lol Cvetin LukeDCoffey Most likely...I mean how would you expect stupid people from a broke country to act that tells their people that the only way to anything is the Greek way. Look up the definition of dictatorship and I’m sure you’ll see Greece there.
