GREECE CONSIDERS ARMENIA ITS STRATEGIC PARTNER
Greece considers Armenia its strategic partner. Deputy foreign minister of Greece Andreas Loverdos stated it at the third sitting of the Armenian-Greek intergovernmental commission in Yerevan today. In his words, the level of economic interaction between the two countries is significantly lower than the level of political cooperation. The goods turnover of $11 million registered current year does not use the capacities of both Armenia and Greece in full, the diplomat considers. He reported that in the future a new group of Greek entrepreneurs would visit Armenia to study the opportunities for cooperation with the Armenian colleagues.
