US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Wednesday that “strong and model NATO ally” Greece and the United States are launching new counterterrorism information sharing between their law enforcement agencies.

Axar.az reports, citing Reuters, during an official visit to Greece, Rubio said Greece was particularly exposed to the threats posed by mass migration and human trafficking.

“As part of our efforts to combat these common threats to our nations, we’re proud to announce a new memorandum of understanding establishing a joint security program to strengthen the counterterrorism information sharing between our respective law enforcement agencies,” he told reporters alongside Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis.
