Nikos Appelaios II argued that the ratification of the Turkey-Libya memorandum by the eastern Libya parliament, following its ratification by the western Libya parliament in 2019, would provoke diplomatic reactions and strengthen Turkish activity in the eastern Mediterranean. He estimated that energy and bilateral relations would be affected, without changing Greece's legal position. He noted that Greece, Egypt, Cyprus, Israel, and the EU were expected to reiterate that the memorandum is null and produces no legal effects against third countries, as, in his view, it disregards the rights of Greek islands, especially Crete, based on UNCLOS. He added that verbal notes and coordinated European and international positions would be significant. Appelaios called on Athens to intensify pressure on Libya for the delimitation of maritime zones or to finalize the Greece-Egypt agreement of 2020, which, he noted, overlaps with Turkish-Libyan claims. He estimated that Turkey could interpret the ratification as a "green light" for further seismic surveys, geophysical studies, or drilling in the contested areas, as well as for increased naval presence and pressure to accept its claims. According to him, such moves would increase the risk of incidents. He characterized the ratification as a blow to the Greece-Cyprus-Israel axis and said it would complicate Greek research south of Crete. He mentioned that Libya had already reacted to the surveys since August, with a verbal note and a threat to freeze talks. He also estimated that Turkey would seek to exploit the now united Libyan position as leverage for multilateral negotiations. He predicted further rapprochement between Haftar and Turkey at economic, political, and possibly military levels, following the lifting of the 2020 boycott. According to him, this could alter the balance in eastern Libya and have serious implications for cooperation with Greece and Egypt. He clarified that the ratification would not resolve Libya's internal divisions nor would it automatically confer international legitimacy on the memorandum against third parties, but would politically strengthen Turkey and complicate Greek diplomacy. He added that Greece's legal position remained strong and that any potential escalation would depend on Turkish actions and the Greek response. Finally, he criticized the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stating that it had not acted in a timely manner, and mentioned that if he were prime minister, he would have already requested the resignation of George Gerapetritis. #Λιβύη #ΕλληνικήΔιπλωματία #ΑνατολικήΜεσόγειος (translated)

"It is clear that we are not effectively addressing the far left." The management of incidents has led to intense discussion within the government, with Justice Minister Gérald Darmanin arguing that security services are effective in dealing with terrorism and organized crime, but show weaknesses when called upon to manage threats from far-left groups. #Γαλλία #λεηλασίες #δημοκρατία (translated)

The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, presented a new European Crisis Response Framework for migration, which will enhance the capacity of member states to respond to serious threats at external borders, focusing on the protection of the values and borders of the EU. #Μετανάστευση #ΕυρωπαϊκήΈνωση #Κρίσεις (translated)

Chris Avramidis commented on the departure of Kimberley Guilfoyle, accusing the Mitsotakis government of not asking her to retract offensive remarks about Greeks. He noted that suicides had increased by 35% during that period and criticized the ambassador for her stance towards the Greek people. Avramidis claimed that the Vertical Corridor would serve the sale of American liquefied natural gas in Europe, benefiting American multinationals and Greek oligarchs, while consumers would pay higher prices. He also linked the case to a report from the Wall Street Journal, which stated that AKTOR paid $160,000 to a lobbyist who illegally participated in official meetings with Guilfoyle, while she was promoting the company to governments in the Balkans. He accused the Greek media of not sufficiently covering the issue and asked why SKAI withdrew a related publication, suggesting that the decision might be connected to the business interests of shipowner Alafouzos. He also claimed that Guilfoyle had threatened that the Greek government could fall and compared this reasoning to the Apostasy of 1965 and the junta of 1967. Finally, Avramidis estimated that AKTOR might lose money and accused Kyriakos Mitsotakis of potentially offsetting losses with direct assignments. He linked the company to the Tempi incident, criticizing the delays in restoring railway signals and the attribution of responsibility to a stationmaster. #Ελλάδα #πολιτική #ενέργεια (translated)

Artificial intelligence technologies bring many benefits and advantages, enhancing efficiency. "However, at the same time, attempts by various states to weaponize these new technologies (...) pose threats to entire sectors of the economy of any country," Peskov pointed out. #Ρωσία #ΕνεργειακήΕκεχειρία #ΔιεθνείςΣχέσεις (translated)

Chris Avramidis wrote that Kimberly Guilfoyle was resigning and accused the government of not asking her to retract offensive remarks about the Greeks. He claimed that government officials were willing to sacrifice everything for the dollar and that the country would pay dearly for the natural gas that would be imported from afar, to the benefit of multinationals, leaving, as he said, the homes cold. Avramidis stated that for several weeks, Guilfoyle's actions had revealed what was happening behind closed doors, mentioning lobbyists, secret meetings, threats of dictatorship if Greece did not procure fuel from the USA, and Greek brokers. He also criticized the mainstream media for, in his opinion, avoiding mentioning Exarchou and Aktor, even though these names, as he wrote, were at the center of an investigation about Greece published by the Wall Street Journal. He asked why SKAI took down a news story and why other systemic media reported the story without mentioning the major contractor. At the same time, he argued that businessmen who appeared as competitors could quickly coordinate when financial interests were at stake. He said that Guilfoyle, whom he described as a former ambassador, provided lessons through her messages on how such agreements were made. He added that the government spokesman tried to defend her, even though she, as he claimed, had ridiculed the Greeks with an inhumane analogy. Finally, he mentioned that even if Aktor's business agreement failed, the company could be awarded a direct contract with public money. He wrote that the project would be delayed for years and that, in the end, those responsible could blame the stationmaster. #Τεμπη #Γκιλφόιλ #Κυβέρνηση #ΜΜΕ #ΔημόσιαΣφαίρα (translated)
