The Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis sent a message during his discussion with the President of the Davos Economic Forum, Borge Brende, to the Turkish leadership against the background of recent statements by Tayyip Erdogan.
Specifically, he stressed that “we are neighbors with Turkey, we will always need to talk and we will always keep the communication channels open, we will never be the ones to cut off communication with our neighbors. On the other hand, if President Erdogan thinks that I will not defend Greece’s sovereignty and our sovereign rights, or I will not ‘internationalize’ that Turkey is behaving as a revisionist power, then he has the wrong impression”.
The Prime Minister spoke about an unacceptable practice when asked to comment on the unprecedented large number of overflights of Turkish fighters over Greek islands.
“I will raise this issue whenever I am given the opportunity until Turkey changes its behavior”, said Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
