Defence Minister Evangelos Meimarakis underscored the contribution
of the Greek armed forces to reinforcing peace and stability in the
Balkan region when he visited the Greek peace-keeping mission in
Kosovo on Wednesday.

Meimarakis met with the members of the Greek peace-keeping force in
Urosevac and Mitrovica and wished them a Happy Easter.

“Greece is not and should not be isolated from developments unfolding
in the broader region,” he said, noting that the stabilising role
Greece and its armed forces are playing in the region is being
recognised by friends and allies.

Meimarakis also visited the Armenian officers stationed at the same
camp as the Greek force in Urosevac.
