[01] Greece's status-quo changed after Tsipras' visit to Beijing, says
Dep. Economy minister
Greece's status-quo was upgraded after Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras'
visit to Beijing for the "Belt and Road Forum for International
Cooperation", Deputy Economy and Development Minister Stergios Pitsiorlas
told the Athens-Macedonian News Agency (ANA) on Monday.
"At the opening and closing of the Forum, the Greek prime minister's
role was very important […] It was a great success and proof that
Greece's status quo is upgraded after this participation in the Forum,"
he said in an interview with ANA.
Pitsiorlas said the three-year action plan signed between Greece and
China on infrastructure projects gives the country a significant role
in China's "One Belt-One Road" strategy.
"Greece is a crucial part for the development of this strategy," he
said, adding the plan includes cooperation in infrastructure projects in
transport, energy and telecommunications, which means Greece will have
to form a package of proposals that will be in line with this strategy.
