The Ministry of National Defense emphasizes that the answer given by the Department of Parliamentary Control of the Ministry of Defense regarding the Question and Request for Submission of Documents by Members of Parliament of the Official Opposition on the subject of “Sovereignty on an island in Evros” is completely identical to the answer of the Ministry of Defense of Citizen on September 14, c.e.

According to the coordinates provided by Tripartite Contact Center Captain Andreevo and confirmed by the Army Geographical Service, the migrants were located except Greek State.

The above applies in its entirety. The immigrants were not in Greek territory, but in Turkish territory on the island of Kissari.

Therefore, no Greek group could intervene in foreign territory. The Turkish side was immediately notified to take the necessary actions on its territory. As soon as they arrived in Greek territory, the immigrants were rounded up and received the appropriate treatment.

Great care and seriousness is needed by all in these sensitive national matters.
