Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs George Katrougalos on Thursday concluded a two-day working visit to Bahrain, where he carried out a series of meetings of both political and economic significance, ANA reports.
Among others, he invited Bahrain to join a trilateral partnership with Greece and Cyprus, along the lines of similar trilaterals set up with Eastern Mediterranean countries.
Katrougalos met with his counterpart, Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmed bin Mohammed Al Khalifa, with sources saying that their discussion focused on regional developments, with emphasis on the Gulf crisis and the situation in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Katrougalos referred to the prospects and opportunities created by Greece’s exit from the financial crisis and the return of the national economy to growth. In this context, the expansion of economic cooperation with Bahrain was discussed, in the sectors of food, energy (including Renewable Energy Sources), tourism, transport and logistics. The two sides also agreed to hold business missions to Athens and Manama, respectively, in the near future.
