Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis received a birthday call from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday, as he turned 57.
Mitsotakis had similarly reached out to Erdogan just days earlier, on February 26, for his birthday, when he turned 71.
The two leaders are expected to meet in April during the next bilateral Supreme Cooperation Council. However, Greek diplomats remain cautious, noting that while an April meeting is still under consideration, no final agreement has been reached.
Last month, Defense Minister Nikos Dendias said that while he supported talks, Turkey’s reaction to the Greek-Cypriot power grid connection and energy projects in the Cyclades islands “does not leave me especially optimistic.”
