Greece can serve as entry point for energy to the north, PM says

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitstotakis insisted on Thursday that Greece can serve as a natural entry point for energy from the south to the north.

Mitsotakis, who attended the Three Seas Initiative summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, said Greece can open up the “southern route of connectivity, whether it concerns rail and road connectivity or energy” for “either natural gas or energy from renewable sources.”

The Three Seas Initiative is a forum of 13 EU states, running along a north-south axis from the Baltic Sea to the Adriatic and Black seas in Central and Eastern Europe.

Greece was represented in the forum for the first time, having become an official member in 2023.
