An EU decision on opening negotiations with Skopje was postponed last December due to pressure from Greece, which has threatened to continue blocking Macedonia's membership until the long-standing name dispute between the two countries is resolved.
Odluka EU o otvaranju pregovora sa Skopljem odložena je prošlog decembra zbog pritiska Grčke, koja je pretila da će nastaviti da blokira članstvo Makedonije dok se dugogodišnji spor oko imena između te dve zemlje ne reši.
