Journalists were given a tour of the “HMS Kent” frigate of the UK’s Royal Navy at Piraeus port on Wednesday, ANA reports.
“The presence of HMS Kent at Piraeus highlights the close maritime relationship between Greece and Great Britain,” noted UK Ambassador to Greece Kate Smith during a presentation on board.
The frigate is part of the fleet of vessels that accompany British aircraft carrier “Queen Elizabeth”, which is currently situated in the Eastern Mediterranean, added Smith. The fleet accompanying the aircraft carrier includes 9 warships and 32 aircraft.
