Greece-Saudi Patriot deal shrouded in secrecy, raising democratic oversight concerns

EUobserver reports that Greece's Patriot missile deployment in Saudi Arabia is governed by a secretive bilateral agreement, with details withheld from the Greek public and parliament. The lack of transparency only surfaces during payment disputes or renewal crises, undermining democratic accountability. This highlights a broader trend of opaque defense arrangements between European states and Gulf powers.
