Special UN mediator on the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia's (FYROM) name issue Matthew Nimetz in statements he made Tuesday to a private TV station in Skopje said that it would be important if a solution was to be found between FYROM and Greece on the pending issue of the name of the landlocked republic before next April's NATO summit.

Responding to a question whether he intended to table a solution proposal to the two sides before a NATO summit in April 2008, Nimetz said "the NATO process is effectively very important and to my view it could contribute tremendously if the issue of the name closed before this date."
