‘Find the Right Spot’...
EDITORIAL

No time for partisan politics It's time Greece's political leaders assumed their responsibilities. A longstanding problem is nearing a settlement. A thorn in the side of Greece's diplomats that has wasted a great deal of energy could soon be removed. Provided the country's political parties rise to the occasion. This applies above all to the leader of the socialist PASOK opposition.

COMMENTARY

The dual name trap The proposal of UN mediator Matthew Nimetz includes five different names for the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. Four of them are descriptive of the polity (Democratic Republic of Macedonia, Constitutional Republic of Macedonia, Independent Republic of Macedonia and New Republic of Macedonia).
