Fyrom in a sentence

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and his counterpart from the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) Zoran Zaev will likely meet on the sidelines of the West Balkans Summit in London on July 10, according to FYROM media on Wednesday.

The signing of the agreement on the FYROM name issue by Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and his FYROM counterpart Zoran Zaev is expected to create a new dynamic in the region.

Currently, the ex-Yugoslav state is formally referred to at the United Nations as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, or FYROM.

In other words, we thought that it would convince third countries not to recognize the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) as “Macedonia” and curb accusations of chauvinism against Greece.

The Metropolitan of Piraeus Seraphim expressed his vehement opposition to the Prespes Agreement between Greece and FYROM in a circular released.

United Nations diplomat Matthew Nimetz, who has mediated talks between the two countries, said he looked forward to Greece’s ratification of the accord after FYROM delivered on related constitutional amendments.

According to the minutes, which came to light in the Greek press on Tuesday, Mr Tsipras appears to be willing to concede the nationality and the language to FYROM and is in a hurry to close the agreement.

A New Democracy government in 1992 allowed the new country breaking away from the collapsing Yugoslavia to call itself FYROM and use the name Macedonia – an abutting ancient Greek province – in what was supposed to be a temporary arrangement.

Asked whether Russia plans to veto the deal at the UN Security Council, Maslov said his country does not oppose any new name FYROM may adopt.

Court documents had described the two men, aged 35 and 51, as being members of FYROM’s counter-intelligence services.

Earlier Friday, FYROM lawmakers fell short of votes needed to expel Gruevski as a member of parliament.

Former Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias says lawmakers should be allowed to vote freely, in a secret ballot, on the agreement with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) which he helped broker last July.

He also called on the premier to deny speculation that the government is revisiting “Ilinden Macedonia” as a candidate name for FYROM.

His allegation follows the paper’s front page which claimed Mr Kammenos had backtracked on his views on the name dispute with FYROM and the US military bases in Greece after a phone contact with Greek PM Alexis Tsipras.

In comments to the MIA news agency in FYROM, Dimitrov suggested that the two foreign ministers had agreed upon a middle ground but refused to reveal what it was.

It is a chance to ditch the long-winded and inelegant name they have been saddled with for the last 27 years – the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, or FYROM for short.

Kotzias expects FYROM name deal to reach Parliament in Jan.

Macedoniais Greece, there is one and only one, regardless of what FYROM Prime Minister Zoran Zaev, or anyone else, says.

ND also referred to “clear and absolute complicity” by Kammenos, despite the latter’s voiced objection to a compromise with FYROM.
