Greece eyes acquisition of four used Italian Bergamini-class frigates

Greece wants to buy four used Bergamini class frigates from Italy, Defence Minister Nikos Dendias said on Monday, as the NATO member seeks to modernise its navy.

High-ranking officials from the two countries signed memorandums for naval cooperation, Dendias said in a statement after a meeting with his Italian counterpart Guido Crosetto in La Spezia in Italy.
