Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, days after signing a $3.5 billion deal with Israel for air defense cooperation amid shared concerns over Turkey, announced plans to visit Egypt this week and said he is also planning a trip to Saudi Arabia. The moves reflect Athens' effort to balance closer security ties with Israel alongside outreach to Arab states. The diplomatic push comes as regional alignments continue to shift amid the ongoing Gaza war and broader Middle East tensions, with Greece positioning itself as a partner to both Israel and Arab governments.
