Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Friday welcomed the agreement on Brexit, in statements after the European Council in Brussels, according to ANA.
He noted that there was relief combined with sadness while expressing hope that the agreement will be ratified by the British parliament.
On the decisions regarding the European Union’s budget, Mitsotakis said that any drop in the budget will lead to cutting back on ambitious policies, as most member-states at the summit pointed out. He underlined that Greece cannot accept any cuts in funding for the two key pillars while describing the European Commission’s agenda for migration, security and climate change as “ambitious”.
The prime minister, after noting the European Council’s decision condemning Turkey’s military operation in Syria and demanding an immediate ceasefire, pointed out that the Council adopted a resolution that Greece must be supported in the management of migration flows, at the insistence of the Greek side.
