The new bilateral agreement will remain in force for four years, commencing on June 19, 2026. According to a ministry statement, the agreement was signed on behalf of the ministry by Hellenic Coast Guard Commandant Vice Admiral Christos Kontorouchas, acting under the authority delegated by Minister of Maritime Affairs and Insular Policy Vassilis Kikilias.
