Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikos Dendias praised what he called the unanimous decision to condemn the Turkey-Sarraj accords as null and void, in statements after the end of a meeting with his counterparts of Egypt, Cyprus, France and Italy, held in Cairo on Wednesday. 

The US presence in Greece and the Republic of Cyprus has been increasing over the past few daays, following the escalation in the Gulf due to the assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani last week.

Nicosia gave its consent to a US request for temporary deployment in Cyprus of a rapid response unit. The task of the unit will be to evacuate US diplomatic missions to the region, as well as US citizens, if necessary.
