A decision by the cabinet of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) to change the name of Skopje airport and of a road that leads to Greece’s borders was published in the FYROM government gazette on Thursday, ANA reports.
The director of the public company managing FYROM’s road network, Zoran Kitanov, said that the company will now immediately remove the 19 signs along the motorway with the name “Alexander of Macedon” and will replace them with others bearing the motorway’s new name “Friendship”.
The Turkish company TAV that has run Skopje airport since 2010 is expected to proceed rapidly with changing the airport’s name from “Alexander the Great” to International Airport of Skopje.
