Tsipras to Stoltenberg: It’s important we adhere to the Bucharest Summit

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg had a telephone conversation with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras yesterday, informing him about his recent visit to the Republic of Macedonia, Greek media reported.

Tsipras congratulated Stoltenberg’s statements on the name dispute with the neighboring country, stressing the importance of consistently adhering to the Bucharest Summit declaration.
