[01] Pavlopoulos: Saudi Arabia could play central role in combatting
terrorism
President Prokopis Pavlopoulos spoke about the role Saudi Arabia could
play in ensuring peace in the region and combatting terrorism, as well
the country's long economic relations with Greece, during a meeting
with Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud on Tuesday.
Pavlopoulos is on an official two-day visit to Saudi Arabia and is
accompanied by Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias, Shipping Minister
Panagiotis Kouroumblis and Alternate Foreign Minister George Katrougalos.
"In this new period of relations with Saudi Arabia, Greece enters as a
member-state of the European Union, located in a very sensitive region
of the Mediterranean. […] The cooperation is not just economic. Saudi
Arabia is a country that lays a central role within the Arabic
countries. Its role is strengthened by its stability. Therefore it can
play an important role in the consolidation of peace in the region and
in combatting terrorism," Pavlopoulos said.
