Boosting Greece’s ties with the Gulf states received a fillip on Thursday with the official visit to Athens of UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who was greeted by Greek PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis at the Maximos Mansion office.

The energy sector, including renewable energy resources, and attracting more UAE investments to Greece dominated talks afterwards.

Mitsotakis specifically cited energy-related infrastructure available and under construction in Greece, especially in terms of importing, storing, and degasifying LNG.

The PM also congratulated Sheikh Mohammed on assuming his duties as UAE president.
“You know how highly we value our bilateral relations… We have already accomplished a great deal, and will do even more in terms of collaboration,” Mitsotakis said, in greeting the UAE leader, while also congratulating Sheikh Al Nahyan for his assumption of the office. The Greek leader also reiterated that his government considers UAE as a strategic partner of Greece, with a leading role in the Gulf and globally.

Moreover, the United Arab Emirates will be the honored country at this year’s Thessaloniki International Fair, annually held in early September.

On his part, Sheikh Mohammed cited progress in bilateral relations over the last two years, while pledging even more upgraded ties.
