On today's three-year anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine, we stand in sorrow and respect before the thousands of lives lost, and in awe of the unspeakable destruction that has occurred.
Our thoughts also go out to the thousands of our compatriots in Mariupol and the surrounding areas, who experienced the horrors of war and continue to bear its consequences.
As a matter of principle, Greece has consistently supported the strict adherence to international law and the UN Charter. We condemn all use of force, as well as the threat of use of force against sovereign states.
The only solution is the cessation of the deadly hostilities and the establishment of a generally acceptable, just and lasting peace for Ukraine.
