In foreign policy you want a clean signal. With Gerateritite, The foreign policy control room is listening to parasites. At the same time as he announces “RoadMap” for the demarcation of maritime zones with Libya by the end of the year – to exterminate the Turkish -tired Memorandum – Athens takes public photos with the head of the reconstruction fund. Libya Belgasem Haftar. Nice as a frame but diplomatically cloudy: roadmap Without a clear interlocutor in a country with double power it looks like a satellite GPS. And the message to Ankara? That we “run” – but in a gym corridor.
To Greece -Cyprus -Israel “Cable” He raises tones: “Anyone who thinks that with attacks will undermine it, he will find us opposite,” he says, while at the same time assuring that the work is proceeding in 2025. However, we are talking about a € 1.9 billion project With technical/financial friction and geopolitical nettles – not for upgrading home router.

The choice to remain shows that Maximus prefers a “well -known risk” to “unknown transformation” – but this risk is now obviously burdened.
The
George Gerapetritis becomes a “bob” because:
- It produces high voltage announcements without adequate earthing (Libya: Roadmap in an unstable political environment).
- It turns a difficult but critical energy project into a field of assurances/threats – against stable, technocratic management – and opens a cycle of media controversy.
- Sends a double signal to the Middle Eastern: Proper outward rhetoric, noisy polarization inward.
That is why we are talking about a “short circuit cable” in nationals: the current exists, but the compounds are rough. And when the compounds are rough, the spark falls on government security. The Foreign Minister was taken aback with developments in Sinai Monastery, the image is not of the robust player, but of the surprise viewer. Much has gathered: from Cyprus and Israel to Gaza and Libya, and the minister seems to be running behind developments instead of catching them. Well for the “calm waters”, we will not dive because we will need Dramamins …
