NATO foreign ministers are gathering in Brussels for an extraordinary session, where the war in Ukraine and Trump’s NATO and Ukraine policy will be high on the agenda.
All key figures are present — including U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, France’s Jean-Noël Barrot, Ukraine’s Andriy Sybiha, and Turkey’s Hakan Fidan.
As part of the NATO Foreign Ministers’ meeting, Greece’s Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis may hold a meeting with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan.
Meanwhile, a pending phone call with U.S. security adviser Mike Waltz is still on hold.
It’s worth noting that Gerapetritis and Fidan last met in Geneva, where they discussed the possibility of holding a bilateral cooperation council meeting between Greece and Turkey at the end of April. However, developments in Turkey — namely the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu — have put the date on hold. Should the two ministers meet again in Brussels, they may revisit the topic.
There is also a pending phone call between Gerapetritis and U.S. national security adviser Mike Waltz, which was postponed due to the leak of classified documents regarding the Houthi attack in Yemen, which were reportedly shared with a journalist.
This call is considered important in reinforcing the already strong Greek-American relationship.
