The administration of East Port Said, at the northern entrance of the Suez Canal, appears to ‘view’ the port of Thessaloniki as a potential gateway to the Balkans and Europe for Egyptian perishable goods but also for Egyptian green hydrogen in the future, based on an interview with the East Port Said general manager, Aly Assem Ibrahim, to the Athens-Macedonian News Agency on Friday.
He noted discussions are underway on the above issues, in the context of a cooperation memorandum signed with the Thessaloniki Port Authority. Ibrahim was in Thessaloniki to participate in the 1st international Southeast Europe Connectivity Forum. According to the East Port Said director, cooperation with the port of Thessaloniki, which he believes will become one of the main gateways to the Balkans, will be a mutually beneficial, win-win proposition.
