“Today is a very important day, it is first of all an anniversary, the 74th anniversary of the founding of NATO. But in addition, this very important anniversary is combined with the entry into the Alliance of a European, democratic country, Finland,” said Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias upon his arrival at the NATO Foreign Ministers’ Summit in Brussels today. .

According to the head of Greek diplomacy, “Finland’s entry (…) reinforces the perception that NATO is not only the most successful defense alliance in the history of this planet. It is also an alliance of values ​​that will deepen and advance the values ​​it defends: international law, territorial integrity, democracy, human rights.”
