CAVUSOGLU

In this new multi-polar and fluid world - with a global public health crisis and a leadership change in the US - we must consider Greek-Turkish relations over the long term.

While the meeting with Cavusoglu had been scheduled earlier, Erdogan’s surprise move to meet Dendias comes straight on the heels of his snub of European Commission President Ursula van Der Leyen.

Cavusoglu underiines that provisions in the Lausanne treaty should be enforced based on mutual understanding, as it is the cornerstone of the contemporary Turkish Republic.
