The continued detention of two Greek servicemen in a Turkish prison for straying into its territory illegally will be discussed at the European Parliament’s plenary session, convening from April 16 to 19, according to the preparatory group meeting on Wednesday.
The discussion item is expected to be approved for inclusion in the agenda on Thursday morning by the Europarliament’s presidents.
