My friend Alyosha reports

"SLOVAKIA, SLOVENIA IDENTIFY IDENTITY AS SOLE BILATERAL PROBLEM.
Visiting Slovenian Prime Minister Anton Rop and Slovakian Prime Minister
Mikulas Dzurinda agreed on 6 February that their only bilateral problem is
that people often confuse their respective countries, dpa reported. Dpa
reported that, during his successful U.S. presidential campaign in 2000,
George W. Bush inadvertently greeted the then-Slovenian prime minister as
the leader of Slovakia. Some 5,000 letters destined for Slovenia were
delivered instead to Slovakia in 2003, the news agency reported. Rop and
Dzurinda expressed confidence that such confusion will disappear once they
join the European Union and gain more international attention."
