The Greek Ministry of National Defense said that Defense Minister Nikolaos Panagiotopoulos after a meeting with the Ukraine Defense Contact Group (UDCG) in Brussels, an Ukrinform, that Greece would respond.
“Minister Panagiotopoulos reminded about the humanitarian and defense aid provided by Greece to Ukraine, which included ammunition and recently sent 20 BMP-1,” a statement explained.
It was noted that the minister stressed that “Greece will continue to support the Ukrainian people’s fair struggle to protect the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” the Ukraine news site added.
During his speech, the minister stressed that the invasion of Ukraine is a flagrant violation of international law, which undermines peace, security, and stability in Europe, all ignored by Russia.
