Kathimerini

On energy, the vertical gas corridor and the Great Sea Interconnector, especially the latter, dominated the news cycle.

In an interview with Kathimerini, Secretary Rubio stated that the GSI, which is set to link the electricity grids of Greece, Cyprus, and Israel, and which Turkey is keen to disrupt, was an important priority for the US.

Rubio also addressed important questions related to Turkey, stating that he believed a Greek-Turkish crisis would be unimaginable and something the US could never allow to happen.

He also made it clear that any sale of F-35s to Turkey was off the table until the strict conditions laid out under US law were met.

Thanks, Thano.

Up next, Vassilis Nedos, Kathimerini's diplomatic and defense editor, joins me as we get into the details of the agreements, particularly on defense, that were reached this week between Greece and the US at the sixth strategic dialogue.

Dear Secretary, dear colleagues, it is a great pleasure to welcome you and your delegation to Athens for the sixth round of the Greece-US Strategic Dialogue.

Together with Angelos, we recently published an analysis of some of the key data in our latest report.

It's available in Kathimerini English Edition.

We'll put a link to the article in our show notes.

That's where we'll leave it for this episode.
