Έδωσα οδηγίες στην Ελληνική Πρεσβεία στην Άγκυρα να πραγματοποιήσει έντονο διάβημα διαμαρτυρίας αναφορικά με τουρκική παρενόχληση κατά του ερευνητικού πλοίου Nautical Geo, καθώς και την έκδοση παράτυπης Navtex. Η συνεχιζόμενη αυτή
τουρκική στάση είναι παντελώς απαράδεκτη.— Nikos Dendias (@NikosDendias) September 18, 2021
