The analysis of the news of 2001 Masedon civil war by comparing Aasedon and Albenia' newspapers

Macedonia was the only state that did not attended war in Yugoslavia. In fact, the return of a formation was like a symptom of the problems that would occur. Because, the geography of the state and the ethnic issue, created by the disintegrating of the state was caused many serious problems. First, bursting problem, occurred due to Macedonian undemocratic state structuring. Macedonians treated Albanians as second-class people, neither admitted their existence, nor allowed them to have a say in the state. They did not neglect to show the population data incomplete and described their nation as the "Macedonian People". At this time, the war of the Albanian organization UCK (Albania Liberation Army) in Kosovo with Serbia was also continuing. The Macedonian State was warned by the UCK to abolish the double standards imposed against Albanians. All this prejudice and fear was hidden in the Macedonian people's thoughts about Albanians living in Macedonia. They thought that the Macedonian Albanians were considering the Great Albania project and that they wanted to establish the Greater Albania state by supporting the existing UCK. In fact, the only thing that Macedonian Albanians wanted was to have equal rights with Macedonians and to live freely in their land. Of course, it never happened.
