EC offers Greek exporters alternative export routes

In a letter to the president of the European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso, the Panhellenic Exporters Association (PSE) expressed its deep concern over the grave consequences the European sanctions against Russia can have on Greek exporters, reports ANA-MPA.

In a formal reply to PSE, the Commission confirmed the readiness of the European Council to agree on additional significant sanctions against Russia, if this proves necessary.

Bearing with the Greek exporters' focus on their exports to Russia, the Commission provided them with what could be an alternative route for their products, reminding them that on June 27 new trade agreements were signed with Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia "which could offer new prospects to the European industry, including the Greek exporters".
