PM Mitsotakis: “Our choice is not to fall for provocations”

"Everyone knows that they should not playing around with Greece"

Newsroom September 20 01:00

The Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis gave an interview on Tuesday morning to the radio station Sphere 102.2, in which he gave answers regarding the Greek-Turkish issues and the subsidy for electricity and natural gas.

Asked about the Greek-Turkish tensions, Kyriakos Mitsotakis replied that “our choice is not to fall for provocations. It is certainly also a pre-election game. 63% of Turks do not consider Greece a threat. We are destined to co-exist, what unites us is more than what separates us”.

He explained that “I will be very strict in terms of the limits we set, everyone knows that they should not playing around with Greece, on the other hand we must discuss and resolve our differences or discuss and agree that we disagree without arguing. Do we need this tension and this poison every day?” asked the Prime Minister.
