disgusting

Yes. This is the dream. What a wonderful thoughtful country Macedonia is. It finds new symbols, new flags and is a culturally inclusive wet dream that is applauded by democracies around the world.

... Until Macedonians no longer exist. Then it will be applauded even louder.

On a separate note, what if some fascist government takes over Albania tomorrow and replaces the Albanian flag with a swastika, will Macedonia have to change all of the Albanian flags to keep it up to date?

OR

Why doesn't Macedonia also put up the Kosovo flag? After all, it too is a homeland for Albanians.

The govt is so stupid & lets it happen.THe epitomy happened at one army outpost where the albanians took the macedonian flag down & put up the albanian one.It even refused to change it backIt's virtually a stamp of approval to do as one likes.This has been unheard of the ultimate in disrespect & the govt does not give two hoots about it.
The day is coming when we are going to be 2nd class citizens in our own country correction that's happening allready.

Fair points.

Do ethnic Albanians have any symbols other than the Holy Roman Empire symbol?

A better question would be if there are any Serbian flags in Kosovo.

1. I am astounded that a Macedonian government website refers to Tetovo as Tetova. There is no hope for Macedonia or Macedonians.

2. If Bitola, Prilep & Shtip are ignored, it won't matter. Macedonians will not complain in any meaningful way. They have never complained in a meaningful way in the last 20 years.

It appears macedonians do not have any self-respect, hence why they allow other people to walk over them, treat them like door mats...

The old and failed macedonian mentality of "lets just be friends with everyone" in hopes that things will improve or people will sorry for us and let us be needs to be eliminated. We need to take action, grab the bull by the horns so to speak.

The fact that the albanian "dominated" areas in macedona are improving at a rapid rate (with the help of the piss weak macedonian government) and the macedonian dominated areas are decaying away and being ignored should be enough warning signals for the macedonians of were the country is heading

The Macedonians are getting exactly what they ask for; nothing. This is exactly what the Macedonian people want. If it were not, they'd be saying so, they'd be arguing, they'd be yelling, they'd be revolting.

When the Macedonians realise it is the squeaky wheel that gets the oil, if not too late, then they might start being considered by their own Government.

Until then, only the Albanians will get what they ask for, or demand; everything.
