How would you feel if another country all of a sudden started using one of your beloved states name as theirs? Such as “New Vardaska Germany” or «Eastern Skopje America»? Would you accept it? Especially if this country was near your beloved State. Especially if you had other «neighbors» using this expansionist policy, would you allow it? No. As you would not allow someone else to be called just like you! Now they use a form of universal awe, like that of Alexander the Great to distort all great historians from antiquity to the present day. Even on the websites we register the domain name, we guarantee an idea, a patent, a song, an innovation even a franchise name. Do you still regret the reactions to our Macedonia? Macedonia is one and it is Greek! Besides, they can still use the name Skopje – if Skopje dos not agree with them -, they still have their old name Vardaska. So not only can they use one but two names to appease them.
Some in extreme ways are trying to change world history, which is extremely (tremendously, truly) dangerous. Anyone without a past has no future; and whoever does not know their history is doomed to relive it. The present burning issue with the name of Macedonia will not be the only one, other similar issues will emerge, that will aim to distort the events not only for the Greeks but for the global history. At the same time, they will become a staircase for destabilizing the region and for geopolitical games that will not be pleasant at all.
Defenders of the truth are called forward to declare present in this «crime» of desecration of world history. Such distortion of major historical events and personalities should not be permitted. Macedonia means Greece and it was, is now and will always be Greek.
