Mitsotakis briefs NATO chief on Turkish East Med activities

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis held a telephone call with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg on Monday amid a sharp increase in tension in the Eastern Mediterranean.

Mitsotakis said that NATO’s policy of equal distances in Greek-Turkish disputes is counterproductive and unacceptable, the same sources said.
