The incident yesterday between the presidents of the US and France suffices for one to understand how the situation is evolving every day in NATO.
The main architect of this new framework is the US president.
Europe and indeed our country are obliged to seek a new course.
Of course defence cannot be excluded from this path. On the contrary, a new defence planning in light of all recent developments is mandatory.

It is exceptionally unstable with many players, some of whom are unpredictable.
It is this environment in which Greece must operate on two axes.
The one axis is for Greece to shield itself with its own forces.
The second is that Greece must activate as much as possible the once dormant and phobic reflexes of the EU.
