Ex-Mediator Says F.Y.R.O.M. ‘Name’ Talks Failed. -FYROM Press

It is time to admit that the long-running UN-led Greece-FYROM 'name' negotiations have been a complete failure, said a former mediator in the dispute.

Veteran British diplomat Robin O’Neil, who was the first mediator in the negotiations aimed at resolving the dispute between Athens and Skopje over FYROM's name, said that after two decades of UN-sponsored talks it was time to admit that they had failed, and accused Greece of insincerity.

“It’s due time for the FYROM government to tell the world that after 20 years the mediation process is complete failure and to address the UN with a request for admission under its so called  "constitutional name",” O’Neil was quoted as telling TV Sonce on Monday.

He said that he will notify the ONU for this in order to accelerate the process of the solution of the name dispute.

Prime Minister Gruevski launched these declarations from Krusheva during the manifestation on the occasion of the 110th anniversary of the Uprising of Ilinden.
