Leaders of Greece, Cyprus, Egypt to boost cooperation
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi (c) shakes hands with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras (r) and Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades (l), following their joint media conference in Cairo, Tuesday. This was the fourth trilateral summit by Egyptian, Greek and Cypriot leaders with talks focusing on cooperation in the fields of energy, agriculture and tourism. Tsipras used the opportunity to call for respect for international law, an apparent dig at Ankara following an increase of violations in the Aegean and comments by Turkish officials disputing Turkey’s sea borders with Greece.
