The government in Skopje recently decided - in breach of the interim agreement with Greece - to rename that city's airport 'Alexander the Great', after the great Greek military commander and civiliser.

The Greek Civil Aviation Service and the Hellenic Air Force, however, registered the airport of Chrysoupoli (Kavala) under that name with the ICAO (and with all other international organisations) 15 years ago. The result of this situation is that enormous risks have now been created which endanger flight safety owing to the fact that two neighbouring FIR will be using the same name for two airports in close proximity.

How has the Commission responded to make FYROM (which aspires to EU accession) understand that its decision endangers the safety of thousands of passengers?
