In his address to the SYRIZA Parliamentary Group, party president Stefanos Kasselakis indirectly referenced the expulsion of MP Pavlos Polakis from the group, hinting at “tactical maneuvers and individual agendas.”

PASOK MP Milena Apostolaki has withdrawn from the socialist party's leadership race, according to an announcement made late Wednesday.

LONDON - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Thursday in London he had had many good and important meetings at the European Political Community (EPC) summit and noted that he had addressed with Emmanuel Macron the French president's visit to Serbia that would most likely take place in late August or early September.

LONDON - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic met with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Thursday in London at the opening of the fourth European Political Community summit.

"A cordial meeting with Olaf Scholz. We will see each other in Belgrade soon," Vucic wrote in an Instagram post.

The Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and European officials expressed shock and condemnation following the shooting at a campaign rally for former President Donald Trump.

Trump was shot in the ear during a campaign event on Saturday after a major security lapse, an attack that will likely reshape this year's presidential race and fuel fears of escalating political violence.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis' trip to the US for the NATO anniversary summit was dominated, if anything, by his strong messages to North Macedonia, both during his speech at the meeting and in the press conference that followed, where he took it one step further, leaving all possibilities open. 

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has welcomed the "clear commitment" by all NATO member states to commit to spending at least 2% of GDP on defense spending, adding that European countries cannot "just rely" on the US for their defense.

Message to Allies on Defense Spending

Kyriakos Mitsotakis conveyed the message that all alliance countries must do more for common defense, even if it means additional defense spending. He made these remarks while speaking on CNN to journalist Julia Chatterley at 1:30 AM on Saturday (Greek time).
