The scale of the response was humbling and posed an editorial dilemma, namely whether the pamphlet should be limited to a small number of indicative perspectives, perhaps favouring more established voices, or whether it should capture the full range of viewpoints. As two of the founding principles and core aims of the GPSG are to act as a forum for the free exchange of ideas and also to give voice to younger and emerging scholars, it was decided that all contributions that met our editorial standards of factual accuracy and timely

  • From Escalation to Normalisation
    From escalation to normalisation Dear reader, the relations between Greece and Turkey are at a crossroads. The developments of the last months have shown that the security not only of the Aegean, but of all of Europe is at stake: From the migration challenge to energy security, maritime boundaries, but also to the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic and, in the medium- to long-term, against climate change: We need cooperation, not confrontation. Europe and Turkey are neighbors. It is now time to come together. We have asked two renowned policy experts from Greece and Turkey to draw on their experience and show us, each from their personal perspective, the way forward. Theirs are some powerful arguments, coming directly from both sides of the Aegean. Henri Bohnet, KAS Athens and Walter Glos, KAS Ankara Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung September 2020 2 “It is hard to envisage a shared future for the Eastern Mediterranean without a solution to the Cyprus Question.” A Greek-Turkish dialogue and the Karamanlis, serving as Greece’s Premier at that role of Germany time, had sent a letter to Chancellor Helmut Schmidt asking for his mediation in acceptance by the Turkish Greek-German relations passed through several government of a specific proposal he made.

  • Key Note Speech Professor Nikos Kotzias Former Minister of Foreign Affairs Conference 15-16 March 2019 Kranidiotis Amphitheater, Ministry of Foreign Affairs
    Key Note Speech Professor Nikos Kotzias Former Minister of Foreign Affairs Conference 15-16 March 2019 Kranidiotis Amphitheater, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Thank you all! Now, here is my issue: when so many people during this Conference say such nice things about yourself truly, one cannot help but think that maybe the person in question should not utter a word to ensure the nice impression stays on. But let me start by thanking my four dear friends, the Ministers, who took the time, made the journey and were here for this personal, yet collaborative, academic celebration. I wish to warmly thank Yiannakis Kassoulides, the Nestor of Foreign Affairs of Cyprus. Thank you so much, Ditmar (Bushati): you were the first person I met and I thoroughly enjoyed the nice talks we had and the events we held at the University of Tirana. And thank you, Daniel (Mitov), as the two of us have worked hard on a series of issues regarding us, Bulgaria and our future together. My thanks go to my namesake, Nikola (Dimitrov). I could very well be from North Macedonia, I guess, since Nick is a common name there. So here we are: Nik and Nick. Still, the situation is not exactly the same because you as a landlocked state do not have much sea. And fortunately, to paraphrase a Greek expression, no one was at sea. I wish to, moreover, thank our nowadays and former Foreign Ministers as well as our many friends, the parliamentarians, who are attending this Conference. Let me greet our peers, the Professors who have come over for these two days, from various academic institutions, the Universities of Crete, Peloponnese, Thrace, Thessaloniki and of course Universities of greater Athens and Piraeus area .

    ІДЕОЛОГІЯ І ПОЛІТИКА ИДЕОЛОГИЯ И ПОЛИТИКА IDEOLOGY AND POLITICS © 2017 Foundation for Good Politics ISSN 2227-6068 RUSSIA AS AN ALTERNATIVE SECURITY PROVIDER: THE GREEK PERSPECTIVE ON THE “UKRAINE CRISIS” Nadiia Koval Ukrainian Institute for the Future, OCRid 0000-0001-9638-2434 Abstract. The article explores the Greek policies with regards to the “Ukraine crisis” through security provider approach. As NATO and EU proved unable to address the entire range of Greece’s security concerns, Athens regularly sought for an alternative security provider, considering that Russia could assume this position after the dissolution of the USSR and provide support to Greek positions on Cyprus, relations with Turkey, Balkan politics, and energy security. This strategy required that Greece support stronger EU-Russia relations, which had direct influence the Greek vision of Ukraine’s place in regional integration processes. To illustrate how this security provider optics influenced Greece’s political choices with regards to the “Ukraine crisis”, policies of the pro- European coalition government of Antonis Samaras and then the “geopolitical turn” by a populist SYRIZA-ANEL coalition of Alexis Tsipras are analyzed.
