For 20 years, Muslims will be the most numerous in Macedonia

Muslims will be the majority population in Macedonia in the next 20 years. This is said in a survey by the American Pew Research Center that provides a longer period for this process, and announces it at the latest in the next 30 years in the research - "The Future of World Religions - Projections for the 2010-2050 population growth". According to the research, Macedonia enters the group of countries that will have a different majority in 2050 compared to 2010. In Macedonia in 2050, Christians will be under 50 per cent of the total number of citizens, and the number of Muslims will grow and will be over 50 per cent.

In 2012, 11,995 ethnic Macedonians were born in Macedonia, and 14,823 died in the same year. It is a balance of minus 2,828 persons. The same 2012 in Macedonia were born 8,035 ethnic Albanians, and died 3,416, which is a plus of 4,619.

Will the change, the disappearance of Christians in front of Muslims in the Balkans, happen faster than the announced world trends.

In the Skopje region (the city of Skopje plus Aracinovo, Kondovo, Petrovec, Ilinden and Saraj) 46.5% of the newborns are Macedonians in 2017 and 39% of newborns are Albanians.

If we add to this the babies of the Muslim families of Roma, Turks and Bosniaks - Macedonia for at least one generation, that is, for 20 years, will be a dominant Muslim country and already live what American research has announced since the beginning of this analysis in Europe for 2030-2050.

A board with North of Macedonia set up at the border crossing with Greece

At the crossing "Bogorodica" on the Greek-Macedonian border already stands a board with the inscription "Republic of North Macedonia" in Macedonian and English.

It's not a new board, but a change is made with noodles a stump on the old inscription.

This is in accordance with the yesterday's decision of the Inter-Ministerial Government Group for the implementation of the Prespa Agreement and the constitutional amendments, which stipulates that the Customs Administration will put stickers on the borders at the border crossings, the state border of the Republic of North Macedonia and the two airports in the Republic of North Macedonia, within 3 days.

Greece ratified the agreement with NATO, Macedonia officially becomes North

According to the Prespa Agreement and the constitutional law for the implementation of the changes in the current Macedonian Constitution, the newly agreed name for the country, the Republic of Northern Macedonia, came into force after the Greek parliament ratified the protocol for Macedonia's membership in NATO.

According to the forecasts, Macedonia will officially become Republic of Northern Macedonia in a few days.

The Government has already established an Inter-Sector Group that will have to prepare a National Action Plan for the implementation of further measures and activities, and within seven days state institutions, border crossings and diolomatic consular offices will have to change the tables with the new name of the state - the Republic Northern Macedonia.

The government does not expect problems from state institutions when using the new name of the state.

How much the whole process will cost the government is not disclosing, but they say that it will be known after the whole procedure is over.

The change of the constitutional name of Macedonia follows after the signing of the Prespa Treaty and its ratification in the parliaments of both countries. After a 27-year dispute with Greece, Macedonia will change its name from "Republic of Macedonia" to "Republic of Northern Macedonia".

The preparations for the census are starting, the column for ethnicity is uncertain

Up to 27 months, the company will have to find the software, ie the application for the trial census and the census of the population, households and apartments in Macedonia. The State Statistical Office announced the announcement two days ago, which officially begins the preparations for the April census probation census and the official census of the population in April next year.

"Solutions for the application are now being sought, since the census will be carried out with notebooks. A trial census will be held in 16 towns and 16 villages, and for the part with the expulsion of the column on ethnicity, we leave the final word to the Parliament. We said our opinion, "said the director of the Statistical Office, Apostol Simovski.

In the tender documentation, some of the issues that need to be contained in the application can be seen. For example, the person's data module, that is, the questions to be answered by the people to be enrolled, contain the mother tongue, citizenship, they will be asked and how much time they are present at the address, whether the person returns to the household more than twice in one month, economic status, means of transport used to reach the workplace / educational institution, main sources of living, etc. The ethnicity category is not contained in the tender documentation for the software
The State Statistical Office said from the State Statistical Office that it was possible at the census to have no question about ethnic and religious affiliation because, as they claim, these data do not have usable value and are susceptible to political abuse.

"There was not a census that was not the target of politicization, but the politics of politics is largely politicized. Therefore, we are ready to give up some aspect, but we will not allow politicization. Let me remind you, this is a statistical operation. According to our Constitution, the rights of a certain group of citizens derive from the language they speak, not from ethnicity, "Simovski said several months ago.

The final word for this should be stated by the Parliament in accordance with the new Census Act, although there are fierce reactions to the erasing of the ethnicity column, given that the state will not have an insight into the percentage of ethnic communities living in Macedonia.

The entire operation with the census should cost 8 and half million euros, which is far less than 14 million for the failed census in 2011. The failed list was also updated by the SLI, which, on the basis of images of the bombs, opened an investigation of Nikola Gruevski and Ali Ahmeti on suspicion that they had annoyed their official position and damaged the budget by 2.8m euros.

The last census in the country was held in 2002 and Macedonia is one of the few countries in the world where the population has not been counted for more than 17 years.
