Deputy FM Amanatidis visits the French Consulate in Thessaloniki

Deputy Foreign Minister Ioannis Amanatidis visited the French Consulate in Thessaloniki today to express his condolences regarding the terrorist attack in Paris.

His message was as follows:

“The aim of terrorists is to drag Europe into a Dark Age of horror and divisions. The defence of the principles – which France defends – of humanism and democracy is our duty, too. Expressing my deep grief and condolences, I am certain that together we can defend these shared principles.”

Earlier, Mr. Amanatidis lit a symbolic candle at the entrance to the French Institute of Thessaloniki, in memory of the victims of the attack, participating in the show of support for the French people.
