Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis had a meeting on Tuesday with the United Arab Emirates Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, Dr Sultan Al Jaber, at the Maximos Mansion in Athens.

Government sources said that the excellent relations between Greece and UAE were reaffirmed at the meeting, as well as a mutual desire to further deepen the Greece-UAE strategic partnership, following the recent meeting between Mitsotakis and UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi last May.

In this context, they discussed the prospects for strengthening economic and investment cooperation and Greece’s role as an energy gateway to Europe.

They also exchanged views on regional developments and on the shared commitment of Greece and the United Arab Emirates to stability and security in the wider region.
