“The publication of the ENIKOS website that brings to light Egypt’s verbal diaphragm from July 8 with which it challenges maritime spatial planning in marine areas where the Hellenic Egyptian EEZ has not been defined, is an extremely alarming development that is still alarming.SYRIZA-PS points out in a statement.

As he mentions“The New Democracy government must answer whether he was aware of Egyptian positions before the presentation of marine spatial planning and – if he knew them – because there was no communication and coordination with the Egyptian side, in order to protect both national interests.”

“Any attempt had to be made to avoid publicly challenging by Egypt- a country with which we have a strategic cooperation- of Greece’s maritime planning, as it only does harm to the country. Especially at a time when Turkey and Libya are supposedly looking for their non -existent objections. “adds and calls the government: “To abandon the foreign policy of” self -diaphragm “,” to take real initiatives to ensure national interests “,” to restart the strategy of cooperation promoted by the SYRIZA government with the aim of consolidating the country as a powerful pillar of peace and stability in the region. “

“Diplomacy is not exercised with photos, smiles and statements without content. Exercised with continuity, seriousness and strategy ”, notes and concludes:

“The country needs diplomacy of responsibility and initiatives, not a diplomacy of impressions.”
