Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13

13. Recalls that, at world level, most other states have in fact recognised this state under the constitutional name of 'Republika Makedonija', but that the European Union and the United Nations take as their starting point the 1993 interim agreement with Greece, which, for international use, lays down the temporary designation 'former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia', and calls on both parties to reach a final agreement as soon as possible with the help of ongoing mediation by the United Nations, under the direction of Mr Matthew Nimetz, and expresses the hope that this name issue will play no role in any decision on relations with NATO;Delete

Paragraph 14

14. Points out that the Hellenic Republic (Greece), unlike in the first few years after its northern neighbour became independent in 1991 is now prepared, as a result of negotiations on a final settlement, to accept a composite name for the state which contains the term 'Macedonia', provided that a distinction is made between it and the part of North Greece which is also called Macedonia;Delete

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 15 a (new)

15α. Calls on the Skopje government to abandon the use of the Greek name ‘Macedonia’ (or derivatives of that name) and to proceed with the adoption of a new commonly acceptable designation, such as, for example ‘Vardarska’ (the official name until 1945) so as to overcome the impasse and usher in peace, genuine understanding and cooperation in the region.
