Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said his government is preparing a permanent solution to the name dispute. He said they are negotiating with a sense of national responsibility in order to reach a solution that would keep their history and heritage, while at the same time rejecting irredentism from the other side
His comments followed a statement by the governor of the Greek province of Central Macedonia, Apostolos Tsitsikostas, according to which a solution will be found if it does not include the word Macedonia in the new name, which coincides with the positions of the junior partner in the Greek government coalition - the "Independent Greeks " and its President Panos Kamenos.
