The dialogue also highlighted recent progress in multiple areas of bilateral cooperation, which builds on PM Mitsotakis’ visit to India earlier this year.
During that visit, he served as the chief guest at the Raisina Dialogue, India’s premier conference on geopolitics and geo-economics.
The discussions focused on the significance of improving connectivity, particularly through maritime routes and corridors, including the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC).
The leaders reviewed developments concerning IMEC, which aims to enhance connectivity not only between India and Greece but also across the broader region.
They exchanged views on regional and global issues, particularly the evolving dynamics in West Asia, reflecting their shared interest in fostering stability and economic growth.
As both countries look to the future, the commitment to deepen ties and explore new avenues for cooperation signals a proactive approach to strengthening the strategic partnership between India and Greece.
