With the announcement of the tragic accident of the Greek tourist bus that happened earlier in Bucharest, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikos Dendias, immediately contacted the Embassy of Greece in Romania, Sofia Grammata, where the Greek Embassy asked her to assist the passengers and to remain by the side of the injured Greeks and their relatives for as long as this is required.
In addition, the Minister of Foreign Affairs contacted relatives of the injured, where he conveyed his wishes for a speedy recovery and his assurance that the Greek Embassy will assist them in every possible way. He reiterated his deepest sorrow for the loss of life of a Greek citizen.
It is noted that there was a telephone conversation between the Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs and his Romanian counterpart, Bogdan Aurescu, in order to thank him for the immediate response of the Romanian authorities and the excellent cooperation they have with the Greek Embassy in Bucharest in dealing with this difficult situation.
One dead, three seriously injuredand 24 hospitalized in local hospitals, is the account of the accident with the Greek coach according to an official statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs earlier.
