“On the whole, I would like to note with satisfaction that Russian-Greek ties are not slowing down and continue to consistently strengthen in all areas,” Putin said.
He stressed that in 9 months of 2021, mutual trade increased by 56%.
“Let me remind you that if last year it decreased by 37%, now we have growth of 57%, this is $ 3.2 billion. We have almost reached the pre-pandemic level,” the Russian president said.
Putin recalled that Russian investments in Greece amount to almost $ 650 million, and Russian companies are ready for further implementation of joint projects, including infrastructure development.
