Almost 4,000 Greeks rallied in the heart of Dusseldorf, Germany on Saturday to protest against the use of the term ‘Macedonia‘ by the government in Skopje.
The flag-waving crowd assembled in Burgplatz for speeches in Greek and German, detailing the crucial historical and political arguments over the name dispute which has been going on for decades.
A letter from the Greek youth of Düsseldorf, read by a Greek student in German, addressed Chancellor Angela Merkel and the German Parliament.
The overall atmosphere was peaceful and the rally ended with the Greek national anthem.
