PM Gruevski: Greece's stickers are undignified

It is up to each citizen to decide how to deal with Greece's impudent, undignified move to put stickers on new registration plates of vehicles from Macedonia, Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski told reporters on Saturday.

"Everybody will act in line with own standards and opinion. On the other hand I will not be surprised if Greeks start to put such stickers on the forehead of our citizens. It seems that they are doing their best to prevent Macedonian tourists to visit Greece," Gruevski said.

The Government, he said, handed over a protest note against this practice, with Greece responding that it is in line with the 1995 Interim Accord, signed by then ruling SDSM, which in that time was saying that the reference FYROM would be used for only two months. As we can see the consequences are still present, the PM added.
