ND seeks to capitalise on divergent views over defence procurements
Although there was broad approval in Parliament on Tuesday for Greece’s purchase of an extra six Rafale jets and up to 4 Belharra frigates from France, the debate around the procurements still provided ample opportunity for political differences, particularly between New Democracy and SYRIZA to be aired.
