Marinakis: Mitsotakis' visit to Spain signals intention to strengthen bilateral relations
Marinakis also referred to the farmers' issue. "Approximately 9 out of 10 farmers who are part of the 'GAIA' programme are not in arrears. This means that they will receive the new low price of 8.5 cents per kilowatt-hour for agricultural electricity."
"The prime minister is meeting in Madrid with the Prime Minister of Spain, Pedro Sanchez. In addition, Kyriakos Mitsotakis will be received by the King of Spain, Felipe VI. This is the first visit by a Greek Prime Minister to Spain, at a bilateral level, in 13 years, which signals the intention to strengthen bilateral relations with a focus on the economy and trade sector," government spokesperson Pavlos Marinakis said on Monday at the press briefing.
"The agenda of the discussions is expected to be dominated by issues of the international, regional and European agenda, with an emphasis on the latest developments in Spain and the Middle East. Greece and Spain face common challenges such as the migration and climate crises, while they have similar views on issues related to the EU budget and the need to support cohesion policy and the common agricultural policy, as well as the need for joint European investments," he added.
