Brexit highlights need of debate over EU future: Greek FM

Athens, 24 June 2016 (MIA) - The results of the British referendum reaffirm of our insistence on the need to carry out a democratic, binding debate on the future of the European Union, on the strengthening of its social functioning and on the democratization of its structures, so that it can function to serve the peoples of Europe and be attractive to the societies of the member states, says Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias.

"In general, based on the developments in recent years, and in particular with regard to the refugee issue, we express our concern at the increasing tendencies towards fragmentation of the European Union, and we stress the need to combat nationalism and extremist conduct", says Kotzias in a statement following the UK referendum.

According to him, the priority for European leaderships should be to abandon punitive mindsets and retrenchment policies, and to cultivate a culture of democratic dialogue and consensus.
