How To Fix A Seam In A Leather Couch

Israeli strategy of encirclement of Turkey

greek Foreign Minister, Dimitris Droutsas, these days he visited Jerusalem, where he met Prime Israeli Minister Netanyahu, Foreign Minister Lieberman, Defense Minister Barak, and even the opposition leader Tzipi Livni.
is another sign of rapprochement between Greece and Israel, confirming the previous (August) meeting between Netanyahu and Prime Minister Papandreou Hellenic: the occasion for the first time an Israeli head of government came on an official visit to Athens. In recent weeks, however, the two countries joint air exercises were held off the Peloponnese and Crete.
Papandreou And in recent days has sought to encourage a rapprochement between Turkey and Israel, pressing for a direct meeting between Erdogan and Netanyahu at the climate change conference to be held Friday, October 22 in Athens, the prime minister is not turkish became enchanted, announcing it will give up to attend the conference if it is present Netanyahu: " A Prime Minister who is said to proud of the military fleet of humanitarian aid is a prime minister with whom I will not discuss .
