"We had the opportunity to touch on all the burning issues of international current affairs, as well as NATO's strategic priorities. We discussed the constructive role of Greece, as our country is truly recognised as a strong pillar of security, stability and democracy in this sensitive and troubled southeastern wing of the Alliance," Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said in statements after his meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
