Meeting with the Deputy Prime Minister of Lebanon<\/b> with a focus on stability, security and regional developments in the Middle East<\/b>.<\/p>\n
At a period of heightened geopolitical challenges in the Eastern Mediterranean<\/b> and the Middle East<\/b>, Athens is intensifying its diplomatic<\/b> initiatives<\/b> with the aim of maintaining regional balance and strengthening international cooperation<\/b>. Foreign Minister Georgos Gerapetritis<\/b> had a high-level meeting<\/b> with Lebanese Deputy Prime Minister Tarek Mitri<\/b>, as part of a dialogue focusing on political stability, security<\/b> and developments in the wider region. The discussion is part of Greece’s strategic approach for an active role in regional balances<\/b>, with an emphasis on supporting institutional governments<\/b> and avoiding further destabilization<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Lebanese Deputy Prime Minister Tarek Mitri<\/b> met with Lebanese Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis<\/b> on Tuesday (21\/04), who reiterated that Athens is in favour of preserving the territorial sovereignty<\/b> and integrity of Lebanon and that is why the support<\/b> of the government and the President, General Aoun<\/b>, is an absolute priority for the Greek capital.<\/p>\nTopics<\/h3>\n
Special interest was again expressed by the minister on the Christian populations of the wider region, but also on a new possible surge of migratory waves.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, a few hours ago, following coordinated actions by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defence, humanitarian aid of about 3 million tons of medicine, food, water and other essentials arrived by an Air Force aircraft.<\/p>\n
A mission that had been planned for a long time, but had not been able to get there due to the very poor security conditions in the region.<\/p>\n
Recall that Athens has also contributed to supporting the Lebanese armed forces by sending armored vehicles, while it was a signatory, along with nine other European countries, to a joint statement on March 31, condemning Hezbollah but calling on Israel not to proceed with operations on Lebanese territory, noting that only the government is responsible for dealing with the Shiite organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
