Kyriakos Mitsotakis

In a carefully coordinated diplomatic effort, Greece and Cyprus are pushing for European Union attention on a potential agreement between Turkey and Syria to delimit maritime zones, raising the specter of legal and political tensions reminiscent of the illegal Turkey-Libya memorandum.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis reaffirmed Greece's steadfast support for Ukraine during his participation in the North-South Summit in Finnish Lapland on Saturday. Speaking upon his arrival, Mitsotakis was unequivocal when asked by journalists about his message to Russia and President Vladimir Putin. 

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has said he is "deeply shocked by the tragic attack on the Christmas market" in the eastern German city of Magdeburg.

In a post on X, Mitsotakis said that "our thoughts are with the victims, their families and all those affected."

Athens remains vigilant and ready to collaborate with partners and allies in addressing a potential scenario involving the delineation of an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) between Turkey and Syria - a move that could undermine the Republic of Cyprus' interests in the Eastern Mediterranean.

The government is taking action following media reports circulated by Türkiye that Ankara is preparing an EEZ with Syria, starting with what Kyriakos Mitsotakis told his European partners at the EU-Western Balkans Summit.

An Extraordinary EU Summit, exclusively for European Defense, will be held on February 3 of the new year, following a proposal by Kyriakos Mitsotakis, as revealed by the Prime Minister himself, in his statements after the conclusion of the Summit in Brussels.

Kyriakos Mitsotakis highlighted the need for a common European defense in statements made upon his arrival at the European Union Summit on Thursday.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis arrived in Brussels to participate in the proceedings of the EU-Western Balkans Summit.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis met with the Foreign Minister of Serbia, Marko Đurić, at the Maximos Mansion.

During the meeting, they discussed the excellent bilateral relations and Serbia’s European integration process.

Yesterday’s meeting of Kyriakos Mitsotakis with the Members of Parliament of the New Democracy at the Maximos Mansion ahead of Christmas was perhaps the best demonstration of intra-party unity in the ranks of the ruling party since the autumn period of turmoil.
