Problem
Denial of state's rights
Other Names:
Denial of rights to sovereign nationsNon-recognition of state's rights
Incidence:
In 1992, the former Yugoslav republic of Macedonia applied for membership to the United Nations under the title of the Republic of Macedonia, which they claimed as their constitutional name. Greece, in protest of the application, opposed the creation of a state calling itself Macedonia, as the title suggests territorial ambitions against the nearby Greek province of Macedonia. By the end of 1992, the former Yugoslav republic had not been recognized by the UN, which left them unprotected from the threat of Serbian aggression.
