In Canberra, Australia, protests were held against the change of the name of the Republic of Macedonia and the ban on the use of the Kutlesh star, the the sixteen-pointed star. Protests were also held in Bern, Paris, Canada…

In Melbourne, the flag with the symbol of the Kutlesh star has been placed outside the Macedonian Consulate.

The main messages of these protests are against the “illegal decisions of the state institutions to change the name. The agreements with Bulgaria and Greece are invalid and illegitimate… In the joint strength and unity is the power and the solution of the Macedonians. United, coordinated in Macedonia and in the world, we will be able to remove the north layer hanging above our thoughts and heads, reads the message of these protests.
