Greek Foreign Ministry: EU rescue team rescued 205 people from rubble in Turkey

“We are especially pleased with the rescue of many people by Greek rescuers who worked here in Turkey, as well as by European rescuers, because we had the opportunity, together with Mr. (Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut. -

) Cavusoglu, to also visit Austrian, Dutch and Icelandic rescuers.

They told us that they, including the Greeks, had saved 205 people," TASS quoted him as saying.

Greece's efforts to help Turkey overcome its "worst trauma" don't end there, Dendias said.

Earlier, Cavusoglu thanked Dendias for helping to eliminate the consequences of the earthquake and expressed hope that differences could be resolved through dialogue.

Also, Bloomberg, citing estimates from the Confederation of Entrepreneurs and Businessmen of Turkey, reported that the earthquake caused damage to the country's economy in the amount of $84 billion.
