Greece enters into ‘strategic alliance’ with Israel

Greece has reported forming a strategic alliance with Israel.

Officials said Athens and Jerusalem launched strategic cooperation over the last year. They said the cooperation included military exercises, strategic dialogue and intelligence exchanges on regional threats.

Officials said Avramopoulos sought U.S. help to enhance regional cooperation that would include Israel. They said Greece wanted to ensure the safety of energy exploration projects in the eastern Mediterranean, particularly off the coast of the Republic of Cyprus. Turkey, asserting the exploration violated its sovereignty, has sent warships to disrupt the projects.
