Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Friday participated in an emergency teleconference of European People’s Party (EPP) leaders to discuss the terrorist attacks by Hamas on Israel and the situation in the Gaza Strip.
According to sources, Mitsotakis repeated his support for Israel and its right to self defence. He also noted that the rules of engagement of an organised state can not be equated with those of a terrorist organisation and underlined the need to avoid a humanitarian crisis.
The Greek premier stressed that Europe must speak with a single voice on a crucial issue of regional but also European security.
Present during the teleconference were Serres MP and New Democracy Secretary for International Relations and the EU, Tasos Hatzivasiliou, and the prime minister’s Special Advisor on International Policy and Public Diplomacy, Aristotelia Peloni.
