The need for cooperation between Greece and Cyprus to address the challenges posed by Russia's invasion of Ukraine was underlined by the Greek Minister of Development and Investment, Adonis Georgiades, stressing that the challenges and solutions are "absolutely identical".
"We are living in strange times, difficult times. The truth is that we have not realized since February 24," Georgiades said from the podium of the first Famagusta Business Forum.
As he said, the historians of the future will look at February 24 "as a crossroads of European history and the world, which creates much greater challenges at the level of the economy and much greater needs for closer cooperation between Greece and Cyprus, because together we can do much more than each one alone."
He said that the challenges are absolutely common and the solutions that exist are absolutely identical. Georgiades said he admires the progress of the Republic of Cyprus and in particular Cyprus' much faster exit from the 2013 crisis, compared to Greece's slower progress, showing stable public finances, solid economic prospects, he said, lower borrowing rates and a competitive economy.
"So we have a lot to learn and follow in Greece," he added.
