Berlin is “watching closely” the developments in Greek-Turkish and the relevant statements and “calls for dialogue to be reached” between the two sides, said the Deputy Government Spokeswoman, Christiane Hoffman.
Answering questions about growing Turkish provocation in the Aegean and recent statements by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, Ms. Hoffman referred to a statement by government spokesman Stephen Hempstreet, who stressed that “co-operation in NATO is particularly important at the moment” and called on the Turkish government to but also to the Greek Prime Minister, to find them “.
“I do not have anything to add to what my colleague said. “And it is certainly true – I can say this in general – that we are watching closely what is happening there, the statements that are being made, and we can only really appeal, especially within NATO and between Alliance partners, to negotiate with each other.” said Hoffman, who, after persistent questions about which of the two leaders the appeal was addressed, limited herself to saying that the government spokesman’s answer was valid and had nothing to add to it.
“The words need no explanation and are still valid,” he said.
Answering a question about time delivery of submarines from Germany to Turkey, Economy Ministry spokeswoman Anika Einhorn clarified that no details were announced about individual armaments programs, adding that the approval time of a program could be significantly different from the time of delivery.
