The Greek Minister answered to the accusations of the former Foreign Minister, Dora Bakojanis, who said that the lack of critics against Albania in the report are a loss for the Greek diplomacy.

Kotzias declared that the conservatory opposition must see that the Tsipras government has sent full and concrete reports to the EU as regards the rights of Greek minorities in Albania.
