A meeting was held in Israel on Tuesday among PASOK party leader George Papandreou, Israeli President Shimon Peres and the country’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Papandreou said that during the meeting they discussed the crisis in the Eurozone as well as the proposals suggested by Greece and PASOK for a “developmental prospect of the European Union”.
Moreover, Papandreou emphasized the great effort being made by the Greek people and the transition government so that Greece can pull through the crisis and the economy can become more sustainable and more competitive.
The PASOK leader also noted the progess that has been made concerning the relations between Greece and Israel in the last two years and their close cooperation in tourism and energy, stressing the need for greater cooperation in the region in order to generate a sense of security and certainty.
George Papandreou has been always the initiator concerning the resurgence of Greek-Israeli relations, and thus it is natural he attended the meeting, in which many ministers and businessmen took part.
