Will of the people != will of the nationalists.

Can’t really say the will of the people is being ignored when referenda are planned, referenda which one can reasonably still presume will be binding.

Both Greece and Macedonia are national countries, so in this case will of the people == will of the nationalists.
Greece probably shouldn't have elected an anti-nationalist governing party then.
Some nations have home: their own country, so in these cases people == nation, and will of the people == will of the nation.
