The Greek Foreign Minister, Nikos Dendias hit back at the unfounded claims of Turkish President Erdogan at the UN General Assembly, saying “Turkey’s positions are stretching every time the bounds human reasoning is called upon to operate within.”
Asked to comment on what the Turkish president said, who showed photos of dead babies, claiming they were the result of violent push-backs by the Greek Coast Guard, Dendias called Turkey out for using immigration as a tool and said it was using false evidence, which was addressed ten days ago.
“The country that directly threatens war, the country that has issued a casus belli, that questions Greek sovereignty in the Aegean islands, is coming to talk about good neighbourly relations” continued the foreign minister, speaking on the sidelines of the meeting with his Egyptian counterpart Sameh Shoukry.
