Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias on Wednesday met his Italian counterpart Luigi Di Maio in Rome and discussed bilateral and European issues, as well as developments in the Eastern Mediterranean, ANA reports.
Prior to departing for Lisbon, where he will meet with his Portuguese counterpart, Dendias noted: “Today we had a very interesting discussion with Luigi Di Maio. We have covered all the issues in our bilateral relations, namely the ratification of the agreement on the maritime zones with Italy as well as economic issues and issues regarding the wider region and Turkish provocativeness. I briefed him on the resumption of the exploratory talks with Turkey on January 25, Turkey’s general behavior in the Eastern Mediterranean, and even issues relating to Libya and the East Med. We also discussed the migration issue. I believe it is extremely useful to have a constant and sincere exchange of views with Italy. I also told him that, even though we respect their decision and their stance, the Greek side would have wished for stronger Italian support on the issue of sanctions against Turkey.”
