that they say is a part of greek heritage it belongs to the north of greece and it cannot be used by a neighboring culture which is a slow culture a later arrival into the balkans however that is now embedded in article two of this treaty which says that the nationality. the second party shall be macedonian slash citizen of the republic of north macedonia once that's been given away it's been recognized by the greek state it's a revocable article two also also promises that greece will invite the former yugoslav macedonia to join nato next month for the nato summit even though that invitation is conditional the on the former yugoslav macedonia ratifying everything in parliament or a referendum and passing constitutional amendments when the time comes for final ratification and full access into nato if every other member of nato has abandoned
10:56 pm
the greeks on this and has gone ahead and done so without the lesser of this agreement being on in the north then the greeks will be isolated within nato and it'll be politically very expensive for them to hold that position for very long they will effectively be surrounded they will be the ones in the minority within nato not the northern macedonians that is the concern that scenario is the concern of the conservative opposition who said that once you've issued this letter of invitation conditional or not you've effectively allowed them in and this is it going to be extremely difficult should they really need on obligations to dislodge them. nigerian police and the military say six suicide bombers have killed at least twenty people in the northeastern state of born the explosions happened as people were celebrating the end of the muslim holy month of ramadan in dumbo bonus state
