According to the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet Daily News, the Turkish authorities have briefed the Greek Foreign Ministry on the situation, particularly as regards the search in international waters near the island to find the remains of one of the two pilots, Nail Erdogan.
According to the Turkish newspaper, Greek Foreign Ministry spokesman Konstantinos Koutras stated that Greece is prepared to help the search if necessary.
