Ministry of Foreign Affairs Press Release regarding the Turkish President's recent public statements against Greece
We follow with disappointment and deep concern the intensification of Turkish rhetorical insanity, this time with unprecedented statements and public threats by the Turkish President against Greece and the Greek people.
We condemn this hybrid behavior of Turkey, which is not only contrary to international law but also to the general effort to build good neighborly relations, which are necessary to create conditions of security and prosperity in the Mediterranean region.
Such statements, in particular when coming from the President of Turkey, are unacceptable and insulting and add to the climate of tension that Turkey is trying to create at the expense of the EU and its member states.
We express full solidarity and support to Greece and the Greek people.
