Greece's diplomatic initiative for peace in the Middle East
The Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs, George Gerapetritis, recently had a communication with his Iranian counterpart, Ali Bagheri Kani. The focus of the discussion was the critical situation prevailing in the Middle East region and the need for de-escalation of tension.
During the communication, Mr. Gerapetritis emphasized that Greece is ready to offer its "good offices" for the promotion of peace. The Greek side underscored the importance of maintaining open channels of communication, even in times of high geopolitical pressure.
Our country consistently supports the resolution of international disputes exclusively through dialogue and diplomacy. The Greek government believes that respect for international law is the only path to avoiding further conflicts that could affect the wider region.
This initiative confirms Greece's role as a pillar of stability in the Eastern Mediterranean. Athens continues to closely monitor developments, seeking to contribute actively to the international community's efforts for the restoration of security and stability.
