According to the article, the attempt on the life of president Gligorov was organized by a secret Macedonist organization protesting the change of the flag of the new state. The same organization (and the hit-man "Bobby") were said in the FAX received by the weekly Macedonian Sun to be planning terrorist acts against the prime minister Branko Crvenkovski, and the leaders of the opposition parties IMRO-DPMNE (Lyupcho Georgievski), Democratic Party (Petar Goshev), and the Liberal Party (Stoyan Andov) in case the name of the Republic of Macedonia is changed as a result of the negotiations with Greece.
