NEW YORK, NY –
Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis spoke by phone on Wednesday [5/21] with Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of the Palestinian Authority Mohammad Mustafa, ahead of Thursday’s [5/22] 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”.
