Greek Foreign Minister receives another death threat

The letter arrived at the ministry at the beginning of the week

Newsroom March 18 11:08

 

For the second time in the space of two months, Greece’s foreign minister has received a letter containing a bullet in an apparent threat to his life according to a Greek daily.

Newspaper ‘Ta Nea’ reports that the letter accuses the minister of selling out Greek history by apparently agreeing to accept a compromise name which will include the term ‘Macedonia’.

The letter arrived at the ministry at the beginning of the week.

The bullet, which according to the report, was of a type used for anti-aircraft weapons, is being investigated by police and army experts.
