The UN has decided to delete macedonia from its list of countries , begs the question does the UN take the realties on ground and the common mans aspirations?

As far as my limited knowledge goes:

• Macedonia - no such country exists.
• FYRO Macedonia - yes, such a country does exist.

FYRO - Former Yugoslav Republic Of

Reason in short: There is a province called Macedonia in Greece and Greece did not want this province to be recognised as an independent country.
