Minister of Foreign Affairs George Gerapetritis’ statement regarding statements made by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Türkiye (19.10.2025)

Greece is committed to an active and consistent foreign policy based on the universal values of International Law and is not determined by third parties. Greece will not deviate from these principles. Those who are unsettled by this fact should come to terms with it, as lecturing and accusing are unacceptable.

Greece actively pursues peace and good neighbourly relations. Nevertheless, when it comes to matters of national interest, there is no room for discussion.
