At today’s EU Foreign Affairs Council in Luxembourg, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Evangelos Venizelos once again very emphatically raised the issue of the need and obligation to ensure complete protection of the Mediterranean marine environment, with regard to the operation for the destruction of Syria’s chemical weapons arsenal.

As Mr. Venizelos stated, “full environmental protection of the Mediterranean must be considered a matter of principle for European policy.”
