Turkey’s National Security Council hails recent positive relations with Greece

·

Turkey’s National Security Council said they will continue maintaining the positive relations with Greece that emerged out of Turkey’s devastating earthquakes on February 6, according to Ekathimerini news.

The Council convened in Ankara, the capital of Turkey, on Thursday and said the established bilateral relations would benefit both sides.

The Council also noted any ongoing developments in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean are being followed closely.

This comes as Greek Defence Minister Nikos Panagiotopoulos announced he will travel to south east Turkey, visiting the earthquake affected area and people.

The visit is set for April 4 and Panagiotopoulos will meet with Turkish Defence Minister Hulusi Akar.
