  • [01] European Parliamentarians address Acheloos River conference

    AMNA--The Greek people can begin to expect an improvement in the future, and Europe is there to provide support and new cohesion programmes to promote regional development, said European Parliament president Martin Schulz via teleconference at a one-day seminar in Perdikaki, northwest Greece on Sunday.

    Joseph Daul, chair of the European People's Party group in the Parliament, also speaking via teleconferencing, said that "Europe has funds for the development of rural areas and the establishment of small and medium-sized enterprises and I hope that this entrepreneurial spirit revives in Greece so that development can too."amna

    Attending the seminar were several representatives of other groups in the European Parliament, Eurodeputies, minister of Agriculture Athanasios Tsaftaris, officials from other ministries, regional officials and mayors.
