    Greece's foreign minister George Papandreou on Wednesday began a Balkan tour encompassing FYROM, Serbia, Montenegro and Kosovo ahead of elections in the region, a tour which he described as "confirmation of Greece's policy of an active role in the wider region, as the country's interests are closely related to the future, the stops and the course of the region".

    Papandreou met with FYROM prime minister Ljubco Georgievski in Skopje, in the first stop on his tour.

    Small quantities of drugs were found aboard a Ukrainian-flat sailboat that ran adrift south of Limnos island Wednesday after developing engine failure, the local harbour authorities said.

    The harbour authorities said the Ukrainian-flag "Evgeniya", with six Ukrainian nationals aboard, developed engine failure as it was sailing in the sea south of Myrina, Limnos.

    A routine search of the sailboat uncovered small quantities of heroin and amphetamines on board after it was towed to Myrina, and the Evgeniya was prohibited from leaving the port.
