Athens will not fall into the trap of escalation that Turkey is trying to impose, we decide whether we should escalate the situation, said Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias speaking to SKAI 100.3 and commenting on the attack launched yesterday by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Starting his position on the show of Vassilis Chiotis and Notis Papadopoulos, he said characteristically: “I would suggest that we stick to the wise answer given yesterday by the Greek side. There is no reason to respond in the same way or to enter the response process. “
He added that the position of the Prime Minister, Kyriakou Mitsotakiin the Congress it was excellent, however nothing was said outside the limits of the permanent Greek positions, therefore I do not understand the Turkish reaction, the Foreign Minister added.
He noted that Turkey sometimes negotiates in a peculiar way, outside of the usual diplomatic practice, but we will not explain the position of the Turkish president. We refer to Mr. Erdogan with respect, as befits all his leaders.
“We do not follow the sharpness, nor do we react in a way that the other side will impose. We have our own positions. We will not fall into the trap of aggravation, if we judge it, we will intensify because the Greek government decides it “.
