Days ahead of the Hague decision, Macedonia's and Bulgaria's southern neighbor has upped the ante when it comes to Bulgarians with foreign passports whose place of birth is Aegean Macedonia.
Athens has informed the Macedonian and Bulgarian ministry they will no longer allow ethnic Bulgarians with foreign passports to enter Greece. These are usually US, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand passport holders.
Although the explanation from offiicial Athens is they don't like to see the name Aegean Macedonia as the place of birth, many of these Bulgarians hail from the Aegean part hence Athens views them as a 'threat' to their national sovereignty.
Macedonian and Bulgarian passport holders for instance have no trouble entering Greece.
