The issue of renewable energy was a central topic during the meeting of Greece’s PM and China’s leader. Mr Xi promised to provide the financial assistance for building the 50 MW solar station Minos on Crit to boost the touristic industry of the island and to decrease CO2 emissions.
“I believe that the relations between the two countries have been strengthened lately,” said Giorgos Patoulis, regional governor of Attica, which is home to the Piraeus Port, a successful example of bilateral cooperation within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative.
The win-win cooperation strategy becomes the signature for Chinese-Greece relations, which connect the two civilizations of the East and West.
