Greece's active support for Beleris
For its part, Greece actively supports Beleris and makes efforts for his release. The prime minister raised the issue with his Albanian counterpart at the NATO conference in Vilnius.
Also, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Giorgos Gerapetritis, called his Albanian counterpart twice on the matter. As Albania has stated, it is "shooting itself in the foot given its European perspective" with its decisions.
