I'm not ignorant to the fact that Bulgarians deny our identity. It just doesn't bother me and In todays Macedonia Bulgarian thinking and actions have no relevance or consequences, that is unless they start behaving like the Greeks and start setting up road blocks. I'm not ignorant to the fact that Macedonians find Bulgarians an easy target of our anger yet we are lenient on our own traitors and the Albanians.
I'm happy to discuss any issue, that is emotions aside and with facts.

Bulgaria vetoes Macedonia’s EU accession talks
Bulgaria has joined Greece in vetoing the opening of EU accession talks with Macedonia, despite a positive recommendation by the European Commission.
Bulgarian President Rossen Plevneliev told EU Enlargement Commissioner Štefan Füle on Wednesday (31 October) that Macedonia is “not ready” to start accession negotiations.
This is the fourth consecutive year that accession talks have been delayed.
Füle visited Bulgaria in a bid to clarify the government's position with respect to Macedonia. Prime Minister Boyko Borissov has accused Skopje of stealing from Bulgaria's history and badmouthing his country (see background).
But Füle got more than explanations and was told that Bulgaria doesn’t see Macedonia as ready to begin accession negotiations.
Füle had invested a lot of his political ambition in trying to unblock the stalemate between Skopje and Athens in the dispute over Macedonia's name, which both countries claim.
The country's internationally recognised name is the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) but Skopje would prefer to be called simply Macedonia, which is also the name of a northern Greek province.
On 10 October, Füle proposed a compromise whereby negotiations would start before a resolution of the name dispute is found. It was the fourth time that the Commission has recommended the start of accession negotiations with Macedonia, and each time the efforts were blocked by Greece.
But this time it appears that some momentum has been introduced by Athens for signing a bilateral memorandum, in which both sides would commit to respecting the other’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and renounce any territorial claims.
Carefully prepared statements
The situation looks different today. Plevneliev told Füle in a carefully prepared statement that before expecting any good news from Brussels, Skopje would first have to improve its relations with Bulgaria.
“The authorities in Skopje will unlock their EU perspective not through propaganda and marketing campaigns but through actual reforms and actions for good-neighbourly relations,” Plevneliev was quoted as saying by the website Novinite.
The Bulgarian president pointed out that Sofia does not deny an EU perspective to Macedonia, and in fact supports that, but takes into account the fact that the former Yugoslav republic is not ready to start talks for EU membership.
“Bulgaria cannot grant an EU certificate to the actions of the government in Skopje which is systematically employing an ideology of hate towards Bulgaria,” Plevneliev stated.
“It is strategically important for the long-term stability in the Balkans that the government in Skopje starts applying the European approach towards its neighbours, without claims and manipulations. It is high time that the government in Skopje be done with its anti-Bulgarian campaign, and the manipulation of historical facts. The responsible European approach towards one’s neighbours and the next generation is to preserve history whatever it might be,” Plevneliev added.
Füle reportedly disagreed with Plevneliev, and argued that Macedonia has been waiting for too long for membership in NATO, which Greece has also blocked, and the EU.
“I am one of those people who believe that it is not good to leave our partners waiting before the door for too long. I believe that integration is the best means for coping with nationalism, and I am convinced that isolation boosts nationalism,” Füle was quoted as saying.

Then they have the audacity to say this just a few years later, acting like they are Macedonia's best friend:
‘Bulgaria has always supported Macedonia in a very sincere way both for EU and NATO membership, and has always extended a helpful hand along this process’ stated PES President Sergei Stanishev at a press conference on the 2015 European Parliament resolution on Macedonia'Bulgaria has always supported Macedonia in a very sincere way both for EU and NATO membership, and has always extended a helpful hand along this process' stated PES President Sergei Stanishev at a press conference on the 2015 European Parliament resolution on Macedonia, organized by the European Parliament Information office in Sofia, Bulgaria.

One year block Macedonia; they next say they are Macedonia's best friend.
Greece wants us to cede on our identity and name and Bulgaria on our identity and history, and they will use any tool to achieve that.

Nation is latest in eastern Europe to claim food firms deliberately supply lower-quality food than they give western nations
Multinationals fobbing us off with inferior food, says Bulgarian minister
30 May 17
Bulgaria has become the latest eastern European state to accuse multinationals of selling food of a lower quality in their country than in the west, and has launched a pan-European taste-test to prove its case. The country’s minister for agriculture, food and forestry, Rumen Porozhanov, said experts had been sent to buy well-known food and drink products in western supermarkets. “Next week, we will buy identical products that are sold on the Bulgarian market by the big chains and then the analysis will start,” he added. It is claimed that major food companies are using poorer-quality ingredients in products sold in central and eastern Europe than in Germany, Austria and the UK, among others. The newly elected Bulgarian prime minister, Boyko Borissov, appeared to attribute the alleged differences in quality to the legacy of the cold war, in comments following a special sitting of the Bulgarian cabinet. “This is unacceptable and insulting,” he told reporters on announcing a review. “Maybe this is a remnant of apartheid – for some, food should be of higher quality, and for others, in Eastern Europe, of lower quality.”
Included in the analysis being undertaken by the Bulgarian food safety agency are popular chocolate, dairy and meat products, non-alcoholic beverages, juices and baby foods. Bulgaria’s ombudsman, Maya Manolova, has also reportedly approached Věra Jourová – the European commissioner for justice, consumers and gender equality – about the issue. It is unclear what evidence Bulgaria has for its claims. When asked for an explanation, a spokesman for the Bulgarian food safety agency said: “Actually, we are still collecting samples to conduct the research. We cannot declare results right now. Now our experts are sampling..” He said the results of the research would not be available until 30 June. The complaint, however, follows similar allegations from the governments of the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia. All four countries are members of the European Union. Hungary’s food safety authority claimed in February to have discovered that Nutella sold in Hungarian supermarkets is not as mellow as the brand in Austria, for example. The spread’s Italian maker, Ferrero, has strongly denied there is any difference in quality. A study published by the Slovakian government in April alleged that the main differences in various products were related to:
- The proportion of fats.
- The different content of meat.
- The addition of artificial sweeteners instead of natural sweeteners.
- The substitution of colouring and artificial fruit aroma for real fruit.
When ordering a review in his country, the Czech agriculture minister Marian Jurečka claimed: “Where some products are concerned, we have turned into Europe’s garbage can.” The suspicion that products sold in eastern Europe are inferior to those in the supermarkets in the west has long had a firm hold in the public imagination in the Visegrád group countries (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia). And the suspicion has been one of the weapons used by the Hungarian government led by Viktor Orbán to attack Brussels. The latest flurry of accusations builds on complaints first made in 2011 by the Slovak association of consumers. The European commission has largely dismissed the complaints, noting that multinational companies are free to adapt their products to different markets as long as EU laws on labelling and safety are respected.In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.

Coincidently, for some strange reason, an Alexander craze was in the air in the early 2000’s and three other directors were also planning Alexander movies of their own including Baz Luhrmann, Ridley Scott and, of course, Oliver Stone. Having beaten everyone to the punch, Oliver Stone’s Alexander took the wind out of the others’ sails and, unfortunately, they all fizzled out of contention. Still, you can’t blame me for wondering what crazy Mel would’ve come up with in his version of Alexander. Surely, anything would have been better than Stone’s pathetic effort.

When Zaev took over the PM's office today, the media was allowed for the first time to record inside the newly renovated government building. People were shocked at the amount of luxury that DPMNE was spending on inside the offices.
