Statement by Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias following his Bilateral meeting with the Israeli Foreign Minister in the context of the visit of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis to Israel (8 February 2021)

Thank you so much, Gabi, for receiving us for another time. We are here, myself, my colleague Haris Theocharis, accompanying Prime Minister Mitsotakis.

I don’t remember which time it is that I have seen you here. We are not counting any more, which is great for our bilateral relations. For us it is a great opportunity to brief you, first of all, on the overall situation in the South-Eastern Mediterranean, but also discuss bilateral issues and how we can move forward on our common future.

It is always a great pleasure to be here in Israel and it is always a great pleasure seeing you, my dear friend Gabi.
