I think this issue needs a dividing line through it down the middle.
The question for the Government is; is there evidence of actual physical attacks against, or other acts of physical aggression aimed at ethnic minorities such as, in this example, Macedonians.

If the Australian Government involved itself in slagging matches such as this one, it seen to be taking sides.
If it did this in a Country where pamphlets printed in 54 languages, recently printed by the NSW Government, advising residents in the western suburbs of Sydney, on the subject of Covid restrictions, it should give most a stark view of the Government position if it did take sides in these issues.

AHC should just FO! Those who choose to migrant here and embrace Australian citizenship? Did so using their right to choose and a God-given free will!

It matters not where you were born but where you choose to live! AHC does not own you or your life, or your inherent right to choose your friends and adopted country! F.O. A.H.C!

"All Macedonian villages and towns have been Hellenised and renamed ".

Because before these Towns /Villages and Areas were invaded and given Slavic names , they were originally , perhaps ,Greek named and populated with Greek speakers ?

Just wondering .

You are now living in Australia, not Europe .

Hello! Scott Morrison isn't doing very well at the job he is paid to do - leading Australia. He is certainly not required to prepare any stupid report on behalf of an imaginary republic thought up by a bunch of foreign nutters.

Keep you alien nonsense out of Australia, or leave.

Alan B. As you know, you and I are rarely (if ever) in agreement in posts at this site. However, in this particular matter, I fully and heartily agree with both the content and sentiment of your post.
As I have no knowledge of the particular issue in contention, I am not unaware of Hellenistic and Bulkan history. People’s from this region have had ‘issues’ since before Jesus was a lad. I would have desired that people from this region could dwell in democratic freedom here in Australia. The incursion of what is euphemistically called ‘identity politics’ will inevitably lead to further disruptions in our society. Sad.

All this multicultural rubbish in Australia has enabled the two idiots who delivered Corona along with furniture to SA the 'alibi' that they don't understand English. They don't understand English, but they can get a licence to operate a heavy vehicle on Australian roads!

How much extra WuFlu has been spread about by people who don't understand our language, I wonder.

Make up your mind as to whether you are "Australian" or "Macedonian", Orban. To me, an "Australian" is a person of whatever race or culture who substantially accepts the primacy of European, largely Anglo Saxon and Protestant, culture in Australia. Anyone who is more enamoured of the culture they fled from is either a foreigner to me, or at best a "hyphenated" Australian with divided loyalties. To me, "hyphenated" Australians are not to be trusted.

Ordan, I understand that your organisation, United Macedonian Diaspora (“UMD”), is a foreign (United States based) organisation and has for years been funded by the Turkish Coalition of America (“TCA”). I further understand that this funding has included the provision of multiyear cash grants and other in kind support including free or subsidised office accommodation and sponsorship of propaganda trips, etc. Finally, I understand that this funding has been partially disclosed in successive TCA annual reports (many of which are still available on the internet).

I note that your current disclosure on the On Line Opinion website is limited to stating your position at the UMD. In order to counter foreign interference in Australia, I respectfully request that in future a more complete and transparent disclosure be made in that regard. I specifically request that in any future articles posted on the On Line Opinion website you disclose to the readership of On Line Opinion - the readership you are trying to influence, that the UMD is a foreign (United States based) organisation and has for years been funded by the TCA. In that regard, I request that you fully disclose the funding relationship, including the provision of multiyear cash grants, free or subsidised office accommodation, sponsorship of propaganda trips, etc. Given all of this, I also request that you disclose any relationship, direct and/or indirect, between the TCA and the Turkish government/Turkish state. Surely your respect for the readership of On line Opinion is such that, and in demonstration of your commitment to countering foreign interference in Australia, you will readily agree to these disclosure requests.

Extremely well written and informative response, Michael Philips. It tends to confirm my belief that whenever somebody is rambling on and on about high minded moral issues, it is usually a Trojan Horse for some kind of self aggrandizement. Climate alarmists seem foremost in that particular art.

Is this Hellenic thing the new Labor ?
