CHINA WANTS TO BE INVOLVED IN NAME DISPUTE



National.

The Chinese Authorities insisted to be debriefed on the details of the negotiations between Macedonia and Greece. It is expected the Chinese mission to the UN to formally request China to be part of the negotiations between Dimitrov and Vasilakis, arranged for Tuesday in New York.

According to Diplomats, this move would allow for the return of the Russian position at the NATO Summit, the source said.

"Macedonian and the Chinese Government have very good relations after Skopje decided to cut ties with Taiwan. The trip made to China by Macedonia's president confirms China's support to Macedonia at the UN, where togethere with Russia and USA has recognized Macedonia under its constitutional name." concluded the Diplomat.


MD: This is no longer only a issue between Macedonia and Greece. China's involvement could be positive for Macedonia, since Macedonia and China have very good relations and China has recognized Macedonia under it's constitutional name.

I am Alexander of Macedon."
