[01] Nimetz cites new proposalA United Nations-mediated meeting between the negotiators of Greece and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) concluded here early Monday afternoon, with UN mediator Matthew Nimetz noting afterwards that he gave both sides a new and "specific proposal" revolving around a composite name with a geographical dimension.He also referred to a fair compromise, while noting that he is not setting any deadlines. Nimetz said the two negotiators, Greece's Adamantios Vassilakis and FYROM's Nikola Dimitrov, will return to their respective countries for consultations. The US diplomat added he will be available at any moment to continue the process and that he is not turning in his mandate to mediate in the dispute. Moreover, he said that differences remain between the two neighbours, although stressing that both nations recognise that a solution to the long-standing problem will reinforce security in the region. Finally, Nimetz said issues dealing with the implementation of a possible agreement were discussed, when asked about "guarantees". Caption: ANA-MPA file photo of Matthew Nimetz.
