According to former Macedonian Prime Minister Lyubcho Georgievski, the Bundestag's decision on Macedonian identity, language and culture is equivalent in format, content and international weight to that of the 1934 Comintern. In his commentary posted on Facebook, he also recalls that similar acts were characteristic of Tito's Yugoslavia and Georgi Dimitrov's Bulgaria. 
Georgievski, who also has Bulgarian citizenship, adds that "not even the Germans themselves", the English, French, Italians, Americans or Canadians can "boast of" such documents. "Now I cannot help but be surprised at the belittling and ignoring of the resolution by all the defenders of the Macedonian identity. Suddenly it turned out that it does not matter? It seems that to be a true Macedonian you have to hate Bulgarians 100%, even to your own detriment," Georgievski writes.
