Eventual formation of a "Great Albania" and not
the name of Macedonia, poses as a real threat to Greece, ex-U.S. State
Secretary Lawrence Eagleburger said in the interview with the Greek paper
Kathimerini.
According
to him, the real threat to Greece is creation of "Great Albania, which is bound
to turn to Greece."
Eagleburger
said he believed that Macedonia and Greece will settle the name issue after
all, pointing out that Greece's insisting for its northern neighbor to change
its name made no sense.
The former
U.S. State Secretary said that a compromise solution would be reached because
of the necessity for Skopje to join NATO and mentioned in this sense the name
"New Macedonia."
