↪ Stressed that fundamental rights, including the inherent right to life, the freedoms of expression and assembly, are universal rights and must be fully respected.
↪ Reiterated Greece’s full respect for international law and the UN Charter and its belief on the need for de-escalation, dialogue and the peaceful resolution of the current crisis.
