Saudi Arabia Triggers Domestic Debate.
Greece has found itself at the center of international attention following a successful military operation by the Greek Force in Saudi Arabia (ELDYSA). On March 19, a Greek Patriot missile battery deployed to protect Saudi energy infrastructure intercepted and destroyed two ballistic missiles. While U.S. and NATO officials praised the move as "historic," it has sparked a fierce political outcry at home. Opposition parties argue that Greece is being pulled too deeply into Middle Eastern conflicts, while Defense Minister Nikos Dendias stated he is "proud" of the forces protecting international security.
