It is clear that at this moment Greece doesn't wish a concrete agreement with Macedonia, just stalling the (name) process to buy time, present itself as constructive and us as the hard ones, Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski told reporters on Sunday.

Such policy may not last for ever and will have boomerang effect on Greece, Gruevski stated on Athens' approach to the dispute with Macedonia over its constitutional name.

Greece, he said, has been using all mechanisms for its policy to suffer no consequences, including its financial situation and possible default.

Greece's buying time policy is also reflected in the country's attitude towards UN mediator Matthew Nimetz, as the country has been failing to set date for his visit to Athens for over a year.

"Now Greece in principle is giving its consent to welcome him, without saying when he may arrive. Now he, not only the Republic of Macedonia, is waiting for a date...And even if he visits Athens, what will he accomplish at the meetings is completely another matter. This is a reflection of Greece's policy of stalling to buy time, which results in no new ideas, dialogue in all this fuss Greece has created by blocking Macedonia's accession to NATO and the EU," the PM said.

Maybe unwillingly this policy has been thus far also tolerated by the international community or its major members.

They probably have their reasons, but I only know that Greece's violation of the international law, principles may not last forever and one day these moves will have boomerang effect on the country itself, Gruevski said.
