Wth it, this process of making Macedonia a nation of the 'citizens of Macedonia' rather than the Macedonian people (with rights for minorities) all became a reality and we effectively began losing our country.If the Republic of Macedonia is not the home OF the Macedonian people and FOR the Macedonian peopl, then what's thedifference between having an independent Macedonia and being occupied by another nation which grants minority rights?
There is only one Macedonian and that is the ethnic Macedonian.
There are citizens of Macedonia who can be Albanian, Turkish, Vlach, Roma, etc.There can be
citizens of Greece who live in the occupied part of Macedonia
who may be Greeks, Vlachs, Pontians,Albanians, etc.There can be
citizens of Bulgaria who live in the occupied part of Macedonia
who may be Bulgarian, Turkish, Roma, etc.There can be
citizens of Albania who live in the occupied part of Macedonia
who may be Albanian, Turkish, etc.There can be
citizens of Serbia who live in the occupied part of Macedonia
who may be Serbian, Albanian, etc.But
NONE of them are Macedonians. They just live in Macedonia.The only Macedonians are the ethnic Macedonians
, who may live in Macedonia (all of) or anywhere in the world.
The term Macedonian is an ethnic term, not a geographical term.
I don't think I can be much clearer than that.

I assure you,
that's what everyone involved at UMD's leadership level believes in and supports. That's what UMD is allabout.
There may be some small edits to that before it is finalised (it is a draft now, so if there's anything that should be in there, pleasehelp us get it all right) and it will be published on UMD's site as well with an explanation that
UMD works solely for theMacedonian cause
and only for the goals and objectives of the Macedonian cause - followed by what it views as the definitionof the Macedonian cause.
If anyone doesn't support and agree with any part of it, then they're not going to get to UMD's decision making levelsunder any circumstance.
Our enemies have tried to infiltrate every single organisation because we have not been clear on what we are working hard anduniting for.This is one of the steps toward defining the purpose of our organisations and one small step toward preventative measuresagainst infiltration of our organisations.
