Dear Sir,
Even after the "temporary agreement" of Sept.13th,1995 between the Republic
of Macedonia and Greece was signed, the Greek border authorities do not
allow Macedonian citizens by origin from Greece to enter Greece. On November
1st, 1995 Petar Kronev was not allowed to cross the Greek border. The same
happened to Kole Mangov and Risto Kizov on Nov 2nd, 1995. All three used
to be Greek citizens, Macedonians by nationality, born in Greece. They
were refused entry into Greece with an explanation that the toponyms in
their passport were written in Macedonian. They were subject to further
discrimination when the Greek authorities did not allow the Greek citizen
Hristos Mangos to meet his brother Kole Mangov in the restaurant at the
border crossing of Niki.
We kindly ask for your co-operation and support of our activities for
protection against the Greek discrimination of Macedonians. Thank you.
