The prime minister said in his remarks, “I believe that we have confirmed our unity and our determination to support Ukraine so that it can defend itself in the best possible way once morest the Russian invasion.”
I think we have also arrived at a framework which does not deviate particularly from the decisions we have taken in the European Council on how this aid can in a practical way have a more substantial and useful result for Ukraine.
He assured, at the same time, in the clearest way that there is no question of sending European NATO forces inside Ukraine.

According to the data presented by the minister, the number of people staying in the hospitality structures of the eastern Aegean islands has decreased by more than 25% compared to the beginning of January.
The decrease in flows concerns the maritime border mainly in the south-eastern Aegean, where a very large improvement is observed, as the flows in the Evros have been minimized.
The Ministry of Migration and Asylum is carefully monitoring the flow that has been observed from the south-eastern coast of Libya, following a proposal by the Minister of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection Vassilis Kikilia.
