Greece's new government remains committed to its NATO role despite close ties with Russia that caused worry to its allies, told Defence Minister Panos Kammenos at AFP on Wednesday.
Speaking after his first meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Kammenos soothed concerns that Athens could go soft on Russia over the crisis in Ukraine.
“We spoke a lot about relations between the alliance and Greece; I assured them that relations will continue as before”, said the minister in an interview at NATO headquarters in Brussels.
“We will continue our cooperation on a political level and also on a military level”.
