ARCHBISHOP DEMETRIOS  SENDS LETTER TO PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH

New York -  Following his statement concerning the recognition of FYROM as
"Republic of Macedonia",  Archbishop Demetrios of America, sent a letter
yesterday to the re-elected President of the United States, George W. Bush.

In this letter Archbishop Demetrios expressed his deep sadness for this
occurrence and, based on historic and current facts, asked for the
reconsideration of this recognition and the promotion of a solution that
would be secured through the ongoing efforts of the United Nations for a
name deemed acceptable by Greece and FYROM.
