Dear Stefan Fule,
EU Commissioner for Enlargement

Nikola ... Be Afraid ... Be Very Afraid
EU Stefan Fule ... MK PM Nikola Gruevski
Greece is trying to destroy ethnic Macedonian culture in the Greek province of Macedonia. You and the EU implicitly support this ... for what ... ?

Greece is trying to force the Republic of Macedonia the change its name, its Macedonian language, its Macedonian Orthodox Church, and every singe Macedonian folk song which references Macedonia (aka wipe off the map).  You and the EU implicitly support this ... for what ... ?

If in 1949, when Greece applied to join Nato, it was a condition of membership, that Greece grant human rights to its ethnic Macedonian minority, then minorities in the Balkans could count on Nato to protect their rights. Nato didn't ... so they couldn't.

If in 1974, when Greece applied to join the EU, it was a condition of membership, that Greece grant human rights to its ethnic Macedonian minority, then minorities in the Balkans could count on the EU to protect their rights. The EU didn't ... so they couldn't.

If in 1986, when Greece offered amnesty to communist combatants of the Greek Civil War to ethnic Greeks but not ethnic Macedonians, Nato and the EU forced Greece to treat ethnic Macedonians equally, then minorities in the Balkans could count on Nato/EU to protect their rights. Nato/EU didn't ... so they couldn't.

If in 1992 when EU Commissioner Robert Badinter reported that only Slovenia and Macedonia qualified for recognition because of their commitment to rule of law and human rights ... had recognized Macedonia,  then minorities in the Balkans could count on Nato/EU to protect their rights. Nato/EU didn't (only Slovenia and Croatia were recognized) ... so they couldn't.

If in 1993 when Greece blockaded Macedonia and forced it to accept the "UN temporary compromise" of that insulting name of "The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, which is listed under the "T" section (more insults), the UN/Nato/EU had refused, then minorities in the Balkans could count on the UN/Nato/EU to protect their rights. The UN/Nato/EU didn't ... so they couldn't.

If, in 2011,the EU had donated 100 Euros to the Macedonian language radio station in Florina/Lerin Greece, then minorities in the Balkans could count on the EU to protect their rights. The EU didn't ... so they couldn't. (Visit them and be interviewed and see if it is too late.)

If Nato had accepted Macedonia in 2010 ...
If the EU had admonished Greece in 2011...
If,If, If, If, If, If, If, If, If, If,  If,  If,  If,  If,  ...

Stefan, I am sure that, someday, you will be called upon to mediate some conflict somewhere, somehow, by someone (the UN, the EU or Nato). I urge you to accept. At your first meeting get up and say these words ...
 "The UN is evil, Nato is evil,the EU is evil ... and I, Stefan Fule, am evil.
Anyway ... thank you ... God bless ... and don't be a stranger.
