Mitsotakis-Erdogan

This handshake between Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan this Thursday in Athens marked the good wind that seems to be finally blowing in the relations between the two countries.

The head of the Turkish state appeared smiling after 6 years in the Greek capital where he first received the president and then the prime minister of the country. Mitsotakis said after the 90-minute meeting that the visit was a new chapter in the relations between the two countries.

"Greece and Turkey must live in peace, find solutions to their problems, and those that cannot be solved must not lead to crises. I feel a historical debt to bring the two countries closer together".

Even Erdogan appeared optimistic in his comments, talking about the need to develop a "constructive dialogue".

"I say it openly. There is no problem so big among us that it cannot be solved if we walk in good faith and focus on the big picture. Countries should keep communication channels open".

Behind the scenes of the Mitsotakis-Erdogan meeting

Pinat - the dog of the Greek prime minister's palace "Megaros Maximos", who is always present at major events, hastened today to welcome the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, together with Kiriakos Mitsotakis.

Mitsotakis' surprise with his beloved dog was not the only scene that drew attention from the conciliatory meeting between the leaders of Athens and Ankara.

This is because Erdogan surprised his Greek counterpart by giving him a book about the history of Gaza.

The gift is of special symbolism, given the situation prevailing in Israel after the attack by Hamas on October 7.

According to the same information, the gift was delivered by the diplomatic adviser of the Turkish presidency, Tsagatai Kilic, to the director of the Greek Prime Minister's diplomatic office, Anna Maria Eleni Boura, while the Mitsotakis-Erdogan meeting was underway.

Meanwhile, as for the table, the Greek media reports that traditional foods are included in the menu of the plenary session of the High Cooperation Council, where Erdogan and Mitsotakis will participate with their ministers.

According to the information, the menu at the working lunch will include dollma (leek), taramo salad, fish, squid, halva and fruit.
