Ministry of Foreign Affairs announcement on the 10th anniversary of the outbreak of the war in Syria
On the tragic 10th anniversary of the outbreak of the Syrian civil war, which has already left hundreds of thousands dead and millions of refugees, Greece, which actively promotes the based on International Law consolidation of peace and stability in the Eastern Mediterranean, continues to support the efforts to achieve a political solution. This solution must ensure the country’s unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity, based on UN Security Council Resolution 2254. Achievement of this solution requires the immediate withdrawal of foreign forces from the country’s territory. Moreover, Syria must cease to be a field of conflict for foreign interests that act to the detriment of the country and the Syrian people. In this context, Greece continues to fully support the efforts being made by the UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy for Syria, Geir Pedersen. It should be noted in this regard that Greece continues to host thousands of Syrian refugees, to whom it provides humanitarian and social assistance, bearing a significant burden in relation to its capabilities.

Coronavirus live: England sets daily jabs record; Von der Leyen issues fresh warning to AstraZeneca
Israel approves new coronavirus regulations for cultural and sporting events; cases in India at four-month high * Protesters opposing Covid regulations clash with police in German city * Pakistan prime minister Imran Khan tests positive for Covid * China’s first local Covid case since February had been vaccinated – state media 5.40pm GMT The BRAZILIAN GOVERNMENT has been in talks with the US about potentially importing excess Covid-19 vaccines since 13 March, the foreign ministry tweeted. On Friday, the White House announced plans to “loan” 4m doses of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine to Canada and Mexico, but reportedly has no plans for doses to be loaned to other countries. _The White House has no plans to loan doses to other countries, according to an administration official._ _Brazil is facing the second-deadliest outbreak of coronavirus after the United States, that has worsened with a new wave in recent weeks pushing the hospital system to the brink of collapse._ Since March 13, the Brazilian Government, through Itamaraty and the Embassy in Washington, in coordination with the Ministry of Health, has been negotiating with the US Government to make it possible for Brazil to import vaccines from the surplus available in the United States. 5.21pm GMT Next month, GREECE will begin distributing FREE COVID-19 TESTS that will allow residents to do it themselves and reduce pressure on the healthcare system, which has faced a rise in new positive cases.
