Russian embassy in Athens: Greece and Cyprus were friends, the transition to the camp of anti-Russian reactions is strange

“The speed with which they moved not only to the ‘camp’ of those who signed the sanctions, but also to the group of leaders of anti-Russian actions, was strange,” said the statement of Sergei Lavrov

Many questions have been raised by the posting of the Russian embassy in Athens, on its official Twitter account, with slurs against Greece and Cyprus.

The Russian embassy publishes a statement by the Russian foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, who refers to the attitude of Athens and Nicosia towards Russia after the invasion of Ukraine and especially the issue of sanctions.

“In recent years, Greece and Cyprus have been among the friendliest countries to us. We had a huge number of joint cultural and educational events. Economic cooperation was actively developing for the sake of mutual interests”, he says and adds:

“The speed with which they moved not only to the “camp” of those who signed the sanctions, but also to the group of leaders of anti-Russian actions, was strange. It reflects the imposed line of aggressive confrontation and not the interest of the Greeks.”
