Vice President of the European Commission, Margaritis Schinas was livid over the decision of the European Intellectual Property Office to register the "turkaegean" trademark, something that in Athens provoked an official inquiry ordered by a furious Development Minister Adonis Georgiadis.

A comprehensive package of measures to protect the Greek border, including the mobilization by FRONTEX of 100 additional border guards on top of the 530 that have been deployed already by the Member States and the deployment of one more airplane, one additional high-speed boat and three thermal camera-carrying vehicles, has been decided by the College of the Commissioners in Brussels.

Margaritis Schinas will be taking over the position of European Commission Vice President for “protecting our European way of life.”
