Greek FM Kotzias: Veto Must Be Used with Prudence and Without Fear

kotziasGreek Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias did not rule out the possibility of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras’ veto at the EU Summit on the refugee issue. “The veto is a negotiation tool, a tool to promote the right position.
It must be used with prudence and without fear” he noted in an interview to the Sunday newspaper Realnews. On whether the refugee issue has an effect on Greece’s relations with its neighboring countries, Kotzias underlined that “there are some that show that they do not consider it a disruption to relations with other countries in our region, however, this opinion is arguably not true.
Kotzias answers to those that accuse him of hard foreign policy that “the defense of the country’s needs and interests…is a very important issue and can not be dealt with in endless retreats and concessions.”
