News report published in Greek daily To Vima regarding the alleged (nonexisting) proposal by the United States over name dispute is media hoax, sources in VMRO-DPMNE said.

"It is media trick, a deception, something the Greek Media is well known for, as the news article differs from official announcements made yesterday, sources in VMRO-DPMNE said on Wednesday.

Greek daily claimed that US President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton tabled a proposal to visiting Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou, suggesting that Republic of Northern Macedonia replaces the term fyrom and the language be referred to as North Macedonian.

Ironically, the same paper just few days ago reported of a 'serious' meeting between Droutsas and Milososki in Madrid. The meeting, of course, never took place.
