Greece does not refuse recognition of the independence of any country resulting from the break-up of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
Greece does refuse to recognize a newly founded, unrelated Slavic country on its northern border by the name of Greece's historical province, "Macedonia" which the Vardar Banovina (the name of FYROM prior to the change) was renamed by as part of the communist expansionist agenda of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to lay claim to Greece's northern territory and forge for itself a path to the Aegean Sea.
