New Delhi, March 20: Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal held a virtual meeting with Greece’s Deputy Foreign Minister Harry Theoharis on Friday. They discussed enhancing cooperation in areas such as trade, investment, tourism, and maritime connectivity.
Goyal emphasized India’s commitment to strengthening its growing relationship with Greece. He shared insights about the meeting on the social media platform X.
Earlier in February, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis during the AI Impact Summit 2026 held in the national capital.
During that meeting, both leaders reviewed various aspects of the India-Greece strategic partnership, including collaboration in trade, defense, security, tourism, culture, and new technologies like artificial intelligence (AI).
According to the Ministry of External Affairs, both nations particularly focused on enhancing connectivity through the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEEC). They expressed hopes for the swift implementation of the India-Europe Free Trade Agreement (FTA), which is expected to benefit both economies and create job opportunities for the youth.
The IMEEC corridor will be developed in two segments: the eastern corridor, linking India to Gulf countries, and the northern corridor, connecting the Gulf region to Europe.
The objective of this corridor is to enhance connectivity, reduce costs, secure supply chains, and facilitate trade. It aims to improve economic ties between Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, thereby generating new employment opportunities.
