The Greek-US strategic relations are based on common values and principles, Alternate Foreign Minister Miltiadis Varvitsiotis said on Wednesday in an interview with "Political" newspaper, making a review of US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to Athens.
"During the talks with Blinken, it appeared that Greek-American relations are at the best level ever. Washington recognizes Greece as a reliable ally, which is the main factor of stability and peace in the wider region of the Eastern Mediterranean," he said.
"This strategic relation is mutually beneficial for both countries that share common values and principles," he underlined.
Regarding the Greek- Turkish relations, Varvitsiotis spoke of an improvement in the climate between the two peoples, stressing, however, that in order to really open a new page, Türkiye must stop the provocations towards Greece and show the necessary respect for International Law.
