HUGE news! 👏 @StateDept Now the entire 🌎 has called out the Turkey-Libya memorandum as bu!!$hit
New @StateDept “the announcement of the ratification of the Turkish-Libyan delimitation memorandum of understanding has raised tensions in the region and is unhelpful and provocative and our position on this matter has not changed.”

Nα εγκαταλείψει την πολιτική των ίσων αποστάσεων κ να λάβει σαφή δημόσια θέση, καλούν οι @HellenicLeaders τον @SecRubio προειδοποιώντας ότι η αμερικανική στάση μπορεί να εκληφθεί από Τουρκια κ Λιβυη ως σιωπηρή αποδοχή των διεκδικήσεών τους "το ζήτημα δεν αφορά πλέον αποκλειστικά Ελλάδα-Τουρκία, αλλά αγγίζει άμεσα αμερικανικά ενεργειακά, οικονομικά και στρατηγικά συμφέροντα στην Ανατολική Μεσόγειο" kathimerini.gr/world/5645448…

“…access is a diplomatic instrument, not a foreign policy strategy. The extraordinary irony is that Rubio’s visit demonstrated just how little the US-Greece relationship depends on any single personality.” My latest in @ekathimerini ekathimerini.com/opinion/131…

HALC reiterates its decade long support of The Great Sea Interconnector. This project - more than any other - represents the great potential of the #EasternMediterranean as a political, economic and energy region. Its completion must be expedited.

🇺🇸 🇬🇷 security relationship has become the key to managing conflicts from Ukraine to the Red Sea. Thank you @NikosDendias and @hndgspio for your leadership and for a fascinating presentation to the @ChicagoCouncil. #StrongerTogether
Ι met today with a Delegation of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs under its President, Mr. @IvoHDaalder and the Executive Director of the Hellenic American Leadership Council (HALC), Mr. Endy @Zemenides. I briefed the participants on the Greece - US strategic relationship and our enhanced cooperation in the area of defence, following the two new Protocols of the MDCA I signed with my counterparts, Mr. Mike Pompeo, in 2019, and Mr. Antony Blinken, in 2021. We also discussed the security situation in the Eastern Mediterranean and the role of Greece as a pillar of security and stability in the broader region. The meeting was also attended by the Chief of Hellenic National Defence General Staff, General Dimitrios Choupis, the Chief of the Hellenic Army General Staff, Lieutenant General Georgios Kostidis, the Chief of Hellenic Navy General Staff, Vice Admiral Dimitrios-Eleftherios Kataras HN, and the Chief of Hellenic Air Force General Staff, Lieutenant General (HAF) Dimosthenis Grigoriadis.
