Greek Foreign Minister concludes South and Central America tour with Jamaica visit

Greek Foreign Affairs Minister Nikos Dendias concluded his tour of South & Central American countries with a visit to Jamaica, the first-ever visit of a Greek foreign affairs minister, he tweeted on Saturday, according to ANA

In a meeting with his Jamaican counterpart, Kamina J. Smith, Dendias discussed “promoting Greece-Jamaica cooperation in investments, renewable energy sources, culture, tourism, and within International Organizations,” he added. They also discussed the two countries “shared commitment to UNCLOS, the Our Ocean Conference 2024 in Greece, and EU-Jamaica relations.”

Dendias made a special mention of the city of Montego Bay, where the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea was signed, and the city’s twinning with Sitia in Crete, “a Greek city at the edge of Crete, a very strategic point where the precise application of the Law of the Sea acquires a national significance,” he pointed out.  

With his visit to Jamaica, Dendias wrapped up his visit to six South & Central American countries, which began in Brazil on Monday and continued to Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay, and Panama.
