This opens a new chapter for the exploitation of our country’s subsea energy wealth.

This is a development of Hope and Perspective for our country.

Greece, with national self-confidence, is laying solid foundations for its energy self-sufficiency and leveraging its geopolitical position in the Eastern Mediterranean.

From tomorrow, we move forward even more decisively, faster, unlocking our country’s potential for progress and prosperity for all Greeks, for all Greeks.”
