"Mislim da neće biti nekih dugoročnih reperkusija na grčko-izraelske odnose; mi žalimo činjenicu da su neki aspekti naše saradnje, koji su bili zakazani za ovu sedmicu, otkazani zbog razvoja događanja u Gazi, ali mislimo da neće biti nikakvih dugoročnih posljedica po grčko-izraelske odnose u budućnosti," izjavio je za SETimes glasnogovornik vlade William Anagnostaras, dodavši da je unaprjeđenje veza korisno za obje zemlje.
"I don't think there will be any long-term repercussions on Greek-Israeli relations; we regret the fact that certain facets of our co-operation, which were scheduled this coming week, were cancelled because of developments in Gaza, but we don't think it there will be any long-term effects on Greek-Israeli relations in the future," embassy spokesman William Anagnostaras told SETimes, adding that enhanced ties are beneficial for both countries.
