IRELAND SET TO RECOGNIZE MACEDONIA
National.
Ireland is likely to recognize Macedonia by its constitutional name, Greek daily Eleftheros Typos said on Tuesday. The same source says Macedonia and Ireland signed a treaty to skip dual taxation. Macedonia's constitutional name was used in the bilateral agreement on the avoidance of dual taxation, signed on Monday during the visit of Macedonian Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki to Dublin. Ireland's government replaced the provisional reference FYROM and used Macedonia's constitutional name despite Greece's strong opposition.
Ireland is the second country among 15 old EU member-states, along with Great Britain, to express readiness to recognize Macedonia by its constitutional name, Eleftheros Typos said.
The paper says no official statement has been released by Greek Foreign Ministry thus far, but back-stage steps have been already taken to "freeze" the recognition.
Macedonian Foreign Ministry said the Foreign Minister Antonio Milososki and Irish Minister for European Affairs Dick Roche initialed the agreement on avoidance on dual taxation.
"This is the first bilateral agreement between these two countries with use of Macedonia's constitutional name, which formalizes Ireland's position that it recognizes the Republic of Macedonia by its constitutional name," Macedonian Foreign Ministry said.

Well done Ireland. It´s time that the Greeks are going to become outsiders, they are to stupid to accept the reality.
Macedonia is Macedonia, there is just a stolen part in Greece, the rest is free of Greeks.
As far as I know, Greeks are homosexual Turks.

Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney intervenes on FYROM issue
All historical and archaeological evidence demonstrates that the ancient Macedonians were Greek. Macedonia is a Greek name that has designated the northern area of Greece for 2,500 years.
I believe that the name Macedonia properly belongs to Greek culture and therefore should not be used by any other country. Greek Macedonia is one of the oldest civilizations known to man and the history of this name should be recognized and respected.
I, along with Representatives Bilirakis, Sarbanes, and Space, have introduced legislation, H. Res. 356, which expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the FYROM should stop the utilization of materials that violate provisions of the UN-brokered Interim Agreement between the FYROM and Greece regarding hostile activities or propaganda and should work with the United Nations and Greece to achieve longstanding United States and United Nations policy goals of finding a mutually-acceptable official name for the FYROM. This bipartisan resolution has 114 cosponsors.
