In Athens, a mass rally is being held outside the parliament building against an agreement with Skopje; clashes between protesters and police officers. Thousands of demonstrators are demanding that Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras refuse to ratify the document, under the terms of which the Republic of Macedonia will be renamed the “Republic of Northern Macedonia”. In Greece, they consider that only residents of the historical region in the northern part of the country can be called Macedonians, and not citizens of a neighboring state.
