[01] Black Sea Economic Cooperation research and technology conference
held in Athens
The Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) countries' first conference
of ministers responsible for research and technology was held in Athens
on Wednesday, with the aim of adopting a plan of action and a joint
declaration on research and technology to enable regional cooperation
to be promoted in the region in this sector.
Addressing the opening session, Deputy Development Minister Yiannis
Papathanasiou said that cooperation in the research and technology
sector was always the frontrunner of wider and deeper cooperation,
paving the way for cooperation in handling crucial problems such as
environmental pollution, as well as industrial cooperation, with
multiple benefits for society.
Greece has worked systematically in the direction of preparation for
the plan of action during its presidency of the BSEC. The deputy
minister said that Greece's active interest in the region is not new
since the country has been maintaining active bilateral scientific and
technological cooperation with almost all countries comprising the BSEC
for years.
