Skopje accuses NATO of backing rebels, seeking to occupy Macedonia SKOPJE, July 24 (AFP) - The government accused NATO Tuesday of backing ethnic Albanian rebels in order to "turn Macedonia into an international protectorate" under the control of the defense alliance. "The aim of the war in Macedonia is to ruin its territorial integrity in order to turn Macedonia into an international protectorate controlled by NATO," government spokesman Antonio Milososki told reporters. "NATO is not an enemy of Macedonia, but, at the same time, it is a big friend of our enemies," he said following a government meeting.
