Greek, Turkish and German officials held an informal meeting in Berlin on Tuesday, government sources reported on Tuesday evening. Germany reportedly invited Turkish President Erdogan’s advisor Ibrahim Kalin to a meeting with Chancellor Angela Merkel’s foreign policy advisor Jan Hecker and Eleni Sourani, European Affairs expert at Maximos Mansion.
Greek government sources said that the results of Monday’s Foreign Affairs Council meeting confirm that the Greek positions are accepted and that the Turkish side is called to de-escalate the provocative actions. “In any case, the channels of communication need to remain open, especially in times of crisis,” the same sources noted.
