Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis is set to answer Antonis Samaras’ criticism of Greece’s dialogue with Turkey in an appearance on the “15 Minutes” program hosted by Giorgos Papachristos.
The discussion will address Samaras’ meetings with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, as well as the phrase “kazan kazan,” meaning a mutually beneficial approach. Gerapetritis will also speak about violations in the Aegean and Turkey’s casus belli.
