Abstract
Economic relations between Greece and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) have come a long way since the challenging early days of confrontation and non‐recognition. This article analyzes the three main components of this dynamic and mutually beneficial relationship: the official government policy regarding FYROM (the Greek Plan for the Economic Reconstruction of the Balkans); commercial/trade relations; and Greek investment in FYROM. Finding a lasting solution to the question of FYROM’s name has taken on a new urgency in light of NATO’s enlargement and FYROM’s desire to join the organization; it remains to be seen whether the momentum built over the past decade can be maintained or whether economic relations will suffer as a result of renewed political tension and diplomatic roadblocks.
