In Greece, tens of thousands of Greeks have staged a mass rally in capital Athens today in a protest about the decades-long dispute over the name Macedonia.<br/><br/>Macedonia and Greece have been at loggerheads for almost 30 years over the name issue, since Macedonia declared independence from Yugoslavia in 1991. <br/><br/>Greece argues use of the name implies territorial claims on its own province of Macedonia. Protesters oppose Greek government proposals on resolving the issue.<br/><br/>The protest has been organised and funded by Greek diaspora groups, with the support of retired officer associations, cultural unions and church groups.
