Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis spoke by phone on Wednesday with Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of the Palestinian Authority Mohammad Mustafa, ahead of Thursday’s open debate at the UN Security Council on the protection of civilians in armed conflict-one of the key priorities of Greece’s presidency of the Council.
According to a post by the Foreign Ministry on X, Gerapetritis underlined that ”FM stressed that, while the resumption of humanitarian aid to Gaza has been a much needed first step, unhindered and large-scale assistance remains essential in order to address the humanitarian crisis & alleviate the suffering of civilians. Greece calls for an immediate ceasefire.”
