    Solution

    Israel signed a defence deal worth 400 million dollars with Greece to sell Spike anti-tank missiles. The agreement reinforces ties between the countries. The Spike is a guided anti-tank missile used by many European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, NATO, countries. Israel's state-owned defence contractor Rafael produces these missiles. Israel's deal with Greece comes days after reaching a similar-sized deal to provide air defence system David's Sling to Finland. Finland has recently joined NATO.
