Turkey must put an end to its provocations in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean, including removing its "outrageous" casus belli (cause of war) against Greece if it is to normalize bilateral ties and relations with the European Union. This was emphasized by the Prime Minister of our southern neighbor Kyriakos Mitsotakis from Sofia, where he arrived to visit earlier in the day, the electronic edition of the Athens daily Kathimerini notes.
Speaking at a joint news conference with newly elected Bulgarian counterpart Kiril Petkov in Sofia, Mitsotakis said Greece wants to see progress in Turkey-EU relations, "as we will be the first to benefit [from such developments]. “.
Asked about the challenges facing the two Balkan countries as a result of immigration pressure, Mitsotakis stressed that the external borders of Greece and Bulgaria are also European borders.
"Both sides are defending [these borders] effectively in terms of human rights," he said.
