  • [01] SI leader holds phone talks with Bulgarian PM

    Main opposition Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) leader and Socialist International (SI) president George Papandreou had a telephone communication with Bulgarian Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev on Monday in view of their visit to Belgrade on Tuesday and afterwards to Kosovo, at the initiative of Socialist International.

    Papandreou stated that they discussed developments in Kosovo and UN special envoy Martti Ahtisaariâs proposal advocating independence for Kosovo "under international supervision", stressing that the issue should be handled with great caution to maintain calm in the region.

    Papandreou and Stanishev also discussed the conditions created after Bulgariaâs EU accession. The Bulgarian prime minister assured the PASOK leader that his country wishes to have close cooperation with Greece and particularly the prefecture of Serres, an entry gate to Greece for Bulgarians.

    The Greek deputy foreign minister said that "Greece being among the first to invest in this sector and help Morocco its its effort to increase energy produced by renewable energy sources to 10 percent over the next five years, from 1 percent it is today, is an objective of ours."

    He added that for this purpose representatives from the Renewable Energy Sources Centre will be signing a cooperation agreement on Tuesday with the corresponding Moroccan organisation and will be conveying to Greek businessmen the potential existing in the region.

    Stylianidis, who is carrying out a two-day working visit to Morocco, held consecutive meetings with the Moroccan industry, trade and economy minister, the energy and mines minister and the overseas trade minister.
