Abstract
After gaining its independence from Yugoslavia the European perspective of the Republic of Macedonia looked promising. Macedonia was the first in the region to sign the Stabilization and Association Agreement but has not yet entered into accession negotiations. Among the obstacles is the unresolved name dispute with Greece. Greece conditions EU accession of the Republic of Macedonia at the expense of its constitutional name. Does the EU step over its core values of justice, freedom and human rights, precisely in the case of Macedonia? Macedonia has received eight recommendations to access negotiations, but a date has not been pr?cised yet. Should Macedonia, which geographically and culturally belongs to the European Union, seek an alternative, or persevere in its declared course towards integration into the European Union?
