Greece set an agenda on refugee issue that will open at EU Summit on Saturday

As they said, Greece was clear and set an agenda that will open on Saturday in Vienna at a European level. Greece will emphasise on the fact if the refugee issue was a big threat of destabilisation and humanitarian crisis last year, this year the foundations for the management of the crisis have been set. "We draw a line, we say that this policy is suitable, this policy can respond to the refugee crisis. There is no point in making it a global issue if you keep on building fences to trap the refugees away in another country."
Regarding the EU-Turkey agreement, the government estimated that all involving members should meet their commitments and added that the implementation of the agreement also depends on the Greek-Turkish relations. In general the government considers positive the dialogue with Turkey even if there are some divergences in certain issues and supports Turkey's asssession process as well as the visa issue if the criteria are met.
On the Cyprus issue, the government stressed the importance of security and withdrawal of the military troops from the island while Tsipras also referred to the guarantees issues in his speech.
On the debt issue, the government expressed optimism. The government sources underlined that Greece is still in negotiations, but investors can see that the Greek economy is outperforming, having better than expected results adding that there are good prospects for recovery. Sources said that prime minister's meeting with US vice president was very important for the debt issue.
