Greece expresses its revulsion and utterly condemns the bombing of civilians by a Russian aircraft on the outskirts of the village of Sartana earlier today, which resulted in the death of two expatriates and the injury of six others, including a child.
By order of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nikos Dendias, the General Secretary Themistoklis Demiris made a strong protest action by telephone towards the Russian Ambassador in Athens and invited him to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs tomorrow.
It should be recalled that the Minister of Foreign Affairs had previously urged his Russian counterpart, during their recent meeting, the issue regarding the need to protect the Greek community.
