Meeting of Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Harry Theoharis with the Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates: Strengthening the strategic cooperation and investment relations between Greece and the UAE

During the meeting with the Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Dr. Ali Obaid Al Dhaheri, we confirmed the strategic cooperation between our countries and agreed to strengthen investment opportunities in the fields of digital technology, energy and connectivity, health and artificial intelligence. It was recognised that the agreements between Greek and Emirati companies in the energy and health sectors constitute the largest UAE investments at European level, with the Emirates being the leading country in foreign direct investment in Greece, according to data from the Bank of Greece. We also committed to drawing up a 6-month plan for holding the next Business Forum and for organising business missions in both directions.
