EBloom of the US in the Middle East conflict It intensifies the anxiety of the Greek political parties for the consequences that the escalation of war in our country could have. Combined with the negative developments recorded for Greece on foreign policy issues (Turkish Pact, provocative statements by Turkish Foreign Ministry, Sinai Monastery) are increasing the voices of convening the Foreign and Defense Committee of the House so that there is detailed information on the opposition.
Indeed, PASOK has requested by Nikos Androulakis before the US “hit” in Iran by the government briefing on political leaders and at the same time launching a meeting of the Foreign Affairs Committee to inform Members.
Following the newer developments, PASOK’s president came back calling on the government in view of the EU and NATO meeting within the week to support initiatives aimed at de -escalation. In a relevant statement he points out that Greece as a non -permanent member of the UN Security Council and an active member of the European Union and the North Atlantic Alliance must stand firmly in favor of peace and respect for international law.
At the same wavelength, the Opposition Party’s Foreign Minister Dimitris Mantzos has called on the government to immediately inform political forces about developments in the wider region.
Circles by Harilaou Trikoupis commenting on the escalation of war and US involvement in the Israeli-Iran war, they point out that if the aim was to avoid nuclear forces involved in conflicts, the exact opposite effect is currently causing. And in a geopolitical environment unstable and while the war between Israel and Palestine is evolving and between Russia and Ukraine.
As US President Donald Trump’s assurances that he will succeed in the planet were not confirmed, on the contrary, the latest dramatic developments show that the US president was dragged in the direction of involvement by Benzamin Netanyahu.
“Six months after Trump’s presidency has taken over the US presidency, people are experiencing the biggest restart in recent decades,” PASOK spokesman Costas Tsoukalas said, noting that there is a clear shift which is not clear that it is serving a stability strategy.
That is why in PASOK they believe that the European Union must take on a more effective role in developments and at the same time our country as a non -permanent member of the UN Security Council to play such a role that it can persuade Europe to act as a pole of stability.
In the meantime, the opposition’s reaction to Turkish Foreign Minister Fidan’s reports to allegedly “Turkish minority” in Thrace and Dodecanese, as well as “two states” in Cyprus, are intense. They challenge international law, as Dimitris Mantzos points out.
According to the opposition party, the country needs a serious, stable, reliable and effective foreign policy which, as it implies, is doubted after the latest developments in Saint Catherine of Sinai, statements by Libya’s representatives of our sovereign rights and our sovereign rights.
“Things are not easy, but it takes understanding, seriousness, low tones and above all a strategy that will lead our Greek people and our homeland to an environment of security and respect for our sovereign rights,” PASOK’s president said, not hiding his concern.
