lpv:translated text	"Surely, Mr. Meijer is aware that ‘Macedonia’ and ‘Macedonian nation’ are terms created by a directive of the Communist International in 1934. After the war, the ideas of Macedonism were taken on board and imposed with an iron fist by the Yugoslav Communist Party and later became part of the idea of Great Serbia. These ideas include a vehement propaganda of Bulgaro-phobia. Many people in Macedonia who are aware of their Bulgarian ethnic identity are being persecuted because of their desire to call themselves Bulgarians. Each year in Skopje, the memorial plaque of the Bulgarian woman Mara Bouneva, a fighter for Macedonia’s freedom, whom the French press named ‘Macedonia’s Charlotte Corday’, is desecrated. In 2007 this desecration was accompanied by a physical assault on Bulgarians and on Macedonian citizens identifying themselves as ethnic Bulgarians. It is high time the Macedonian government put such manifestation of hatred against Bulgarians under restraint because such manifestations of hatred do not belong in the European Union. Thank you."@en1
