The Supreme Council of Cooperation with Turkey will take place in time, which will be discussed by the two sides and depends on the programs of the two leaders and stressed by Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis.

Speaking to Ot.gr and tovima.gr websites, Mr. Gerapetritis stressed that the Greek -Turkish talks have not been frozen and all the pillars concerning political dialogue, the positive agenda are continuing normally. “The Supreme Council, which is the crown of all pillars of the Greek -Turkish dialogue, will take place in a relatively short time” noted.

Referenced In the event of a warm April in Greek-Turkish relations, in the wake of the Greek-Cyprus electric interconnection cableMr Gerapetritis said that the reality is that we have been in the Greek -Turkish dialogue that – as he said – has produced very significant results. “He has produced first and foremost the restart of discussions on the Cyprus issue. He has produced the significant reduction in migratory flows. He has essentially produced the nihilism of Greek airspace violations, a better understanding, a better bilateral trade. These tensions always produce a strong dissatisfaction between the parties. Of the electric cable. My feeling and expectation is that the project will continue normally ” he said.

He added that It is a project that is free in international law And the entire Mediterranean is seated with surface cables of electrical interconnection and data transfer, so it is not something that can be obstructed.

“Unfortunately, the fact that there has been no demarcation of maritime zones at this time, that is, a continental shelf and exclusive economic zone, reproduces this type of tensions and will continue to reproduce them until we come to a common understanding, in an agreement, in a reference to us through a coalition. he said.

Referenced In marine spatial planning He said that it is an obligation, which is under the law of the European Union and Greece is long -term.

“Plans for maritime spatial planning should have already been submitted. They will be submitted in the immediate future, so that we do not have this obligation to the European Union. I realize that because many issues have been cumulated over time, which can potentially cause tensions, it is important to maintain them, it is important to keep them. To walk. added.

He noted that we are always on alert for all because of the certainties and in the pieces of geopolitical analysis have been virtually abolished in the last three years.

“The reality today is that there is a great deal of tension between Israel and Turkey, which has increased in the last two years. The arrival of the new US administration has created, in fact, new data on these issues. I would like to point out our place, because I want to confess to you that I am not very important. Our relationships with Israel is strategic. said Mr. Geratettritis. He added that Greece is perhaps the only country, which also maintains very strong historical ties with the whole Arab world, while remaining – as he said – to high very good strategic relationships with the US As his recent visit and his meeting with his American counterpart Marco Rubio proved.

”I think there should be no other country, at least in our western space, which at the moment has excellent relations with the whole planet, and this is the one, which in my opinion is the most important. Greece is at the hard core of the European Union, is a member of the United Nations Security Council, enjoys very high international recognition, has corporate strategic relationships with big players. Turkey has its own attitude towards foreign policy. It has a very outstretched foreign policy in many fields – and not always quiet fields – that world. I think that what is important to us is to set up our own diplomacy on solid foundations and these foundations to try to grow them every time ” he said.

Referring to the Cyprus issue stated “Conquited optimistic and definitely much more optimistic than when I took over the Foreign Minister’s offensive when it was a very difficult time for the Cyprus issue” while recalling that for seven years there had been no meeting after Crans Montana and seemed to be the Cyprus issue not to be among the priorities of the Secretary General.

“Today the Cyprus issue seems to be the first, out of war, the priority of the United Nations” he said.

Referenced on tariffs imposed by Trump administration Mr Gerapetritis said that No trade war is in principle positive And it is obvious that it produces concern, while the tugboat, which we are experiencing at this time, with measures and countermeasures, which relate to duties and other economic measures, create an extremely complex environment. He estimated that we can expect negative intercourse, such as inflation, recession, or interest rates, and noted that the reality is that we should seek meaningful, productive solutions to any trade problems.

“Protectionism has been historically proven that it has not been in the long run in a meaningful functioning of the free economy. For us as Greece, but also as a member of the European Union, I think the important thing is to be able to seek, through a more consulting approach, the solutions to any problems of international trade, and to do so, Mr. Gerattitis emphasized.
