"Having weighed up the pros and cons of this motion, I abstained. I want a resolution that lays down a much clearer framework for a mutually acceptable solution to the problems. The motion for a resolution has numerous positive points, but it also has seriously problematic points which, ultimately, prevented me from voting in favour of it, as I would have wished. Generally speaking, it is less balanced than the reports for the previous two years, which the Greek Greens voted in favour of. The solution to the name must indeed include solutions in terms of acceptance of the ethnic and linguistic self-determination of FYROM, with one eye on the future and on terms that do not undermine the right of other ethnic groups in the historic/geographical area of Macedonia as a whole from calling themselves Macedonians, should they so wish. At this point, the statements made in paragraph 15 of the motion are seriously problematic and will not help to provide motivation and time for truly convincing solutions. The motion should be an opportunity to resolve the problem through dialogue and a mutually acceptable compromise, by making use of the procedure for FYROM to accede to the European structures and laying down a timetable for it. The reference here to the recent precedent of the solution to differences between Croatia and Slovenia is positive as a condition for completion of Croatia’s accession to the EU."@en1
