WATERPOLO TEAM HELD AT GREEK BORDER
Sports.
The Macedonian national waterpolo team is held at the Greek border being denied entry. The reason is the Macedonian insignia and 'MKD' code the national waterpolo players have on their warm-ups.
If the waiting at the border continued, (3 hours have passed), the national team would return to Skopje and inform the waterpolo governing body of the incident, but they got entry into Greece after all.
In the first match of this year's waterpolo league, Macedonia lost to Croatia 9-7, while Greece lost to Russia 9-6.
The match Greece v Macedonia is scheduled for Tuesday at 17:30 in Athens.

GRECE SHOULD BE KICKED OUT OF ALL INTERNATIONAL SPORTS IF IT CONTINUES TO BULLY MACEDONIA WITH ITS CHILDISH GAMES...
NOT GREEK OR MACEDONIAN

But you have claimed to be 'greek' so you cannot be Macedonian by ethnicity. How can anyone be 2 ethnicities at once?
'greeks' claim to be Macedonians, but Macedonians never claim to be 'greeks'

Is this the answer to my post?
It seems pretty unrelated to me!

Just because the arvanitovlachs to the south of the Republic of Macedonia don't recognize us, doesn't mean that we Macedonians don't exist. Have you seen the human rights cases that 'greece' has lost? Europe orders athens to offer full human rights to ethnic Macedonians and ethnic Turks who are from 'greece', but athens ignores these court rulings.
The reality is that ethnic Macedonians exist, and we are those ethnic Macedonians. We are not going anywhere, we will continue to exist.
Pozdrav,
Your Macedonian friend

As you try to pollute this thread, it comes back against you.

What I see is that your water polo team tried to behave like a bully man, in someone else’s house. And the owners of the house kept him outside. Very wise by them!

If you do not let us participate with a name that we choose to self identify with, then you are nothing but a racist. It is clear to the world that Macedonians exist as it is evident with the rulings of various human rights watch groups. Every human being has the right to self identification, and no racist government can take that away.
Explain how it is coming back against me? It seems to me that you are not intellectually capable to understand the basics of human rights.

So, you have the right of self identification but we do not? Explain this to me? When some millions of Greeks define themselves as Macedonians, you come here to say to us that we are not and that you are the proper Macedonians! who is the racist now?
Oh, by the way, at the time of the entrance, you knew that Greece do not recognize you as Macedonia. It requires a lot of stupitidy to try to enter with that name. Nothing to do with human rights. Just stupitidy.
