Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikos Dendias’ statements to journalists during his visit to the United Kingdom (London 14.10.2022)

Today I will have the opportunity to meet for the first time with the new Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom, James Cleverly.And, as always, we will examine together the Cyprus issue and the possibility of a process to begin, at last, that will settle the Cyprus issue.Furthermore, I will be able to brief him on the situation in the Eastern Mediterranean, on Turkish unlawful and provocative conduct, on the issues raised by the so-called Turkish-Libyan “memorandum”, the invalid Turkish-Libyan “memorandum”, and aside from that, the situation in the Western Balkans.First of all, we will discuss the bilateral framework, the implementation of the agreement on the Strategic Framework, which I signed with the current Prime Minister, Liz Truss, when she was Foreign Secretary.The United Kingdom has always been an important country, a strategic and long standing friend of Greece. And for the Greek Government, the Mitsotakis Government, it is particularly important for the UK to have a full picture of Greece’s views.
