Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ meeting with King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis met with King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain, at Maximos Mansion.

During the meeting, they discussed their mutual desire to strengthen bilateral economic cooperation, with an emphasis on the investment sector and the signing of a memorandum of understanding on investment cooperation.

There was also an exchange of views on regional developments, as well as on cooperation between Greece and Bahrain at the United Nations, as Greece is a non-permanent member of the Security Council until the end of the year.

At the beginning of the meeting, the Prime Minister made the following statement:

Your Majesty, it’s a real pleasure to welcome you to Greece. And thank you for making the time to visit us during these extremely turbulent times. There is a lot to discuss about what’s happening in the region.

I would like again to reiterate our total commitment to your security and your territorial integrity in light of what has happened over the past months, but also to stress the particular importance I place towards strengthening our bilateral relationship. We have made progress over the past years, but I think there is much more that we can do on the bilateral front, especially when it comes to shared investments in our countries.

So, I’m very much looking forward to this discussion. And again, thank you so much for taking the time to visit Greece.
