“Earthquakes created the conditions for climate change and the development of dialogue with Turkey. That’s why we need a national strategy and we set the agenda and not blindly follow the agenda of third parties or awkwardly react to Turkish proposals,” said the responsible head of SYRIZA. George Katrugalos.

And adds:

“Unfortunately, we will once again hear from the Turkish side about developments regarding proposals not related to such a dialogue that we have been promoting since 2021, when others were investing in the doctrine of an allegedly isolated Turkey.

We ask again:

What exactly was the Turkish 6-point proposal? What was the answer, and if there was none, why didn’t Greece submit counter-proposals for dialogue two months ago? Does Mr. Mitsotakis have any proposals for dialogue? Or joins the line of Ms. Bakoyannis: for the delimitation of the EEZ in the Eastern Mediterranean without extending the territorial waters there. And for joint operation – as energy factors also say – without the demarcation of the EEZ? For us, these positions are not the basis for dialogue with the solution horizon.”
