International
recognition of The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia's (F.Y.R.O.M.)
independence from Yugoslavia in 1991 was delayed by Greece's objection to
the new state's use of what it considered a Hellenic name and symbols.
Greece finally lifted its trade blockade in 1995, and the two countries
agreed to normalize relations, despite continued disagreement over
F.Y.R.O.M.'s use of "Macedonia." F.Y.R.O.M.'s large Macedonian
minority, an ethnic Macedonian armed insurgency in F.Y.R.O.M. in 2001, and the
status of neighboring Kosovo continue to be sources of ethnic tension.
At
independence in November 1991, Macedonia was the least developed of the
Yugoslav republics, producing a mere 5% of the total federal output of goods
and services. The collapse of Yugoslavia ended transfer payments from the
center and eliminated advantages from inclusion in a de facto free trade
area. An absence of infrastructure, UN sanctions on Yugoslavia, one of its
largest markets, and a Greek economic embargo over a dispute about the
country's constitutional name and flag hindered economic growth until 1996.
GDP subsequently rose each year through 2000. However, the leadership's
commitment to economic reform, free trade, and regional integration was
undermined by the ethnic Macedonian insurgency of 2001. The economy shrank
about 4% because of decreased trade, intermittent border closures, increased
deficit spending on security needs, and investor uncertainty. The
international community hopes to restart growth with a donors' conference in
2002.
