"They Hate Us Because of Our Freedom!"​​​​​​​​​​​​​
"They Hate Us Because of Our Freedom!"​​​​​​​​​​​​​
No. We hate US foreign policy because it's destroying our countries. Who are "we"? Macedonia and every country that the United States has ever meddled in. But US politicians turn everything into an "us (U.S.) vs them" scenario and always blame "the other". But take this scenario instead: You find out that someone hates or is mad at you for something that you're doing. What's the first thing you do? You don't yell and scream "You hate me because of my freedom!" You consider whether what you're doing is right and, if it's not, here's a novel idea (for US politicians): you stop doing it.
Proceedings Begin in Two MHRMI European Court of Human Rights Cases Aimed at Aiding and Freeing Macedonian Political Prisoners
Proceedings Begin in Two MHRMI European Court of Human Rights Cases Aimed at Aiding and Freeing Macedonian Political Prisoners
Macedonian Human Rights Movement International has launched several cases in the European Court of Human Rights, specifically: to secure the immediate release of Macedonian political prisoners jailed by the SDS/DUI regime in Macedonia; to secure immediate medical attention, thus far denied by the regime, for several political prisoners suffering urgent health issues; to hold the regime accountable for repeated, serious violations of human rights against Macedonians stemming from the forced name change; and to reverse the name change, which was illegally imposed through the "Prespa Agreement" and, in addition to violating multiple human rights conventions to which Macedonia has ratified, is in direct violation of Macedonian and international law, the Macedonian constitution, parliamentary rules and procedures, and thus, having no standing.
MHRMI Calls on EU Parliamentarians to Demand an End to NATO/EU Anti-Macedonian Policies
MHRMI Calls on EU Parliamentarians to Demand an End to NATO/EU Anti-Macedonian Policies
Member of Croatian Parliament and former MEP, Marijana Petir, said: "Nobody would tolerate the forced renaming of their country and redefinition of their identity. This should not be expected of Macedonians either. These are not the European values that we stand for. Macedonians must be allowed to embrace their name, culture, identity and history. I stand with Macedonia and Macedonians and call for my European colleagues to join me."
Reaction From OMO Ilinden PIRIN to the Anti-Macedonian Statement by Bulgarian PM Kiril Petkov
Reaction From OMO Ilinden PIRIN to the Anti-Macedonian Statement by Bulgarian PM Kiril Petkov
Unfortunately, with his statement that "Bulgaria does not have a Macedonian minority", Bulgarian Prime Minister Kiril Petkov took his place in the totalitarian relay race, initiated by Todor Zhivkov, and carried on as a shameful contagion through Borisov and Karakachanov, down to Petkov. But it's not only him, millions repeat the lie that there is no Macedonian minority in Bulgaria, but it still does not make it true, and it will not make Macedonians disappear. The words of our detractors have no power to change reality, that there is and there will be a Macedonian minority in Bulgaria.
Macedonian Association Ilinden Tirana Strongly Denounces Continued Attempts by Bulgaria to Assimilate Macedonians in Albania and Present Them as Bulgarians
Macedonian Association Ilinden Tirana Strongly Denounces Continued Attempts by Bulgaria to Assimilate Macedonians in Albania and Present Them as Bulgarians
On behalf of Macedonians in Albania and of the members of the Macedonian Association Ilinden Tirana, we express our disbelief at the frauds, undignified lies and numerous provocations issued by the Bulgarian Embassy in Albania on January 6th 2022. In a number of photographs and in an article that contained nothing that is factually correct, the Embassy published the most brazen Bulgarian fraud yet. In this press release, published at the internet site of the Bulgarian Embassy, it is claimed that the children of the Korca region celebrated "Christmas in the Bulgarian style" and that all children in the municipality of Pustec, from kindergarten up to 12th grade, received Christmas and New Year presents.
MAEI: Bulgaria Blatantly Interferes in the Internal Affairs of Albania in an Attempt to Assimilate Macedonians Into Bulgarians
MAEI: Bulgaria Blatantly Interferes in the Internal Affairs of Albania in an Attempt to Assimilate Macedonians Into Bulgarians
The Macedonian Alliance for European Integration (MAEI) strongly condemns the latest provocations and lies coming from the Bulgarian Embassy in Tirana, which, in its statement issued today, claims that the children of the Korca region celebrated "Christmas in the Bulgarian style", and that the Embassy gave Christmas presents to all the children, K to 12, in the municipality of Pustec. The Macedonian Alliance for European Integration considers these statements from the Bulgarian Embassy in Tirana to be provocations. The Macedonian Alliance for European Integration informs the public that there was no celebration of "Bulgarian style Christmas" in the municipality of Pustec. Today, the Macedonians in Pustec and in other parts of Albania, celebrated Badnik according to the traditional Macedonian customs, and tomorrow we celebrate Christmas, in a way that was inherited for centuries, from our Macedonian ancestors.
Reaction From Macedonian Association Ilinden Tirana to Bulgaria's Attempts to Impose a Bulgarian Identity on the Macedonians in Golo Brdo
Reaction From Macedonian Association Ilinden Tirana to Bulgaria's Attempts to Impose a Bulgarian Identity on the Macedonians in Golo Brdo
The Macedonian Association Ilinden Tirana and the Ilinden newspaper, as representatives of the Macedonians in Albania, stand in solidarity with the numerous protests from the Macedonian population of Golo Brdo. We also consider it necessary to present the message of the Macedonians in Golo Brdo to the international public - the message that reflects the Macedonian sentiment of the Macedonians in Golo Brdo, who are now asked to adopt a Bulgarian identity. Macedonians in the Republic of Albania have always been Macedonians and will never become Bulgarians!
The Point of NATO Is...?
The Point of NATO Is...?
Instead of “curbing Russian aggression” - which it clearly can't and won't do – how about preventing (instead of encouraging) American aggression?
