Greek Ambassador Congratulates Azerbaijan on 20th Independence Anniversary

The Greek Ambassador in Baku Ioannis Metaxas congratulated the people of Azerbaijan for the 20th anniversary of their country’s independence.

The Greek Embassy in Baku was the first embassy after the embassy in Moscow, to start its operation in the newly formed country of the former Soviet Union in 1993.

In 2004, the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Athens started its operation as well. “A lot of bilateral agreements are already in force. Azerbaijanis learn the Greek language at the Baku Slavic University. Other Azerbaijanis have training courses in Greece” said the Greek ambassador.

“My country stands ready to implement the projects Inter-connector Turkey-Greece-Italy (ITGI) and Inter-connector Greece-Bulgaria (IGB), which might bring Azerbaijani gas to Europe. Nobody could foresee twenty years ago that both our countries would be today so close. I hope that our relations have a bright future and I trust that both governments are committed to further promote our bilateral cooperation in a lot of new sectors” added the Greek envoy.
