Shocking News!! Slavic ultra-Nationalists attack against Greek Tourists in FYROM

Another alarming event of the anti-Greek Hysteria and Fanaticism prevailing currently in  FYROM took place. A group of Greek tourists who were at that time in the centre of the city of Ohrid, were attacked by a group numbering about 20 persons, mainly of young ages.

According to E-Tipos, this group of Nationalists initially wrote with red paint Anti-Greek mottos on the  Greek Bus which was at the time empty. The local media reported the mottos were “Macedonia”, “United Macedonia” and “Alexander the Great”.

When the Greek tourists showed up, the nationalists threw at them stones causing damages on the bus and injuring a Greek tourist.  The Greek ministry of Foreign affairs condemned this “incident of organised attack” as the representantive of MFA, Mr George Koumoutsakos said. Mr Koumoutsakos added “Activities like that, unfortunately dissolve the contact between the two nations, make visible the problem of Nationalism and Intolerance against Greece which are consciously cultivated the recent period in Skopje.”

Mr Koumoutsakos lastly called upon  the officials of the neighbouring country to “protect the Greek visitors but also to arrest and punish those responsible for these horrific activities”.

Not surprisingly, it appears FYROM is nothing near to being safe for any Greek anymore!!
