THE NUMBER ➡ 3 billion euros | This is the amount for the armaments contract signed between France and Greece. The Hellenic Republic will equip itself with three French frigates built by Naval Group, for an amount of approximately 3 billion euros. Moreover, a few days ago the Greece had already indicated that it would increase its orders for Rafale aircraft, produced by the Dassault Aviation group. The Greek military aviation buys six additional new fighters in addition to the 12 used Rafale. The aeronautical contract covers an amount of approximately 2.5 billion euros. This agreement comes within the framework of a strategic partnership between France and Greece. For France, this commercial success slightly erases the disappointment with Australia, which terminated a “historic contract” for the construction of submarines. This had resulted in a serious diplomatic crisis with the United States, Great Britain and Australia.
