PM briefed on plight of children in Ukraine's Greek villages

Deputy Foreign Minister Terens Quick on Monday briefed Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on the results of his three-day tour of Greek-community villages in the Ukraine, particularly stressing the plight of children in Greek villages within the conflict zone and the difficulties they face.

Quick, whose visit ends on Monday, noted that the children in schools within the “contact zone” have need of psychological support.
