CHCAGO, IL – Businessman, philanthropist, and President of the Council of Greeks Abroad in the U.S. Theodore Spyropoulos, placed two full-page messages in the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun-Times last weekend, during the NATO Summit in Chicago, telling the world leaders and the American People that “The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia [FYROM] is not yet ready to join NATO.” It was a personal initiative of Spyropoulos, he paid for the advertisement as a private Greek-American and not in his official capacity as President of SAE in the U.S. The decision of the Summit Meeting of NATO not to invite FYROM to join NATO was received with much satisfaction by the Greek-American Community and certainly by Hellenes throughout the world.
