Athens , 5 June 2008

“Today is yet another occasion for greater sensitivity – greater vigilance on the part of citizens and governments – in confronting the major, common problem of the environment and climate change. This is a problem that knows no borders, and that is why we all have to deal with it together. Confronting this problem will require joint, coordinated efforts. Within this framework, Greece, too, is actively participating in all of the international initiatives, the international fora, that are aimed precisely at improving the environment and confronting the problems created by climate change.”
