I met today in Damascus with the interim President of Syria and the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
We discussed about Syria’s new institutions, following the fall of Assad’s authoritarian regime. The institutions have to be based on the rule of law. They have to be inclusive, tolerant and fully comply with International Law and especially the Law of the Sea.
Greece is actively present in the region, as a member of the UN Security Council and a strong EU member state, with a vested interest due to the existence of Christian populations in the region. As a reliable interlocutor of the Arab world, Greece will be present to ensure tranquility and prosperity in the region.
