We will immediately inform our allies and partners regarding the content of the provocative statements of the last few days, in order to make clear who is undermining our alliance’s cohesion at a particularly dangerous juncture” the Greek Foreign Ministry said in an announcement regarding Turkish officials recent remarks.
