The strategic alliance with the United Arab Emirates – Article in “Apogevmatini”

Η στρατηγική συμμαχία με τα Ηνωμένα Αραβικά Εμιράτα – Χάρης Θεοχάρης

In my article in the newspaper “Apogevmatini”, I refer to the continuous strengthening of relations between Greece and the United Arab Emirates and to the significant prospects being created for the Greek economy, in a year marking 50 years of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The results of our strategic cooperation are already visible:

  • More than €4 billion of investments have already been made in Greece.
  • A further €10 billion is estimated to be mobilised through the new agreements.
  • New partnerships in artificial intelligence, energy, infrastructure, health and agri-food are opening up significant opportunities for Greek businesses.

At a time of international uncertainty, Greece is strengthening its role as a reliable partner and a bridge of cooperation between Europe and the Middle East.

For us, however, the success of economic diplomacy is not measured only by the agreements we sign, but by the investments that are implemented, the jobs that are created and the growth that returns to society.

This is the goal we serve consistently, strengthening the outward orientation and the international standing of our country.
