The prospects of promoting economic, cultural and educational cooperation

Athens on Friday.
The two ministers also focused on regional developments with Kotzias

the region.

[02] Arrival of four cruise ships to Katakolo; breather for the local
economy
Four cruise ships carrying 8,733 tourists and 3,416 crew members
docked at the port of Katakolo on Wednesday. The tourists visited the
archaeological site of Ancient Olympia while some of them decided to have
a swim taking advantage of the high temperatures and the sunny weather.
Vice president of Katakolo municipal port fund Sakis Antonopoulos said
to Athens Macedonian News Agency that the arrival of the four cruise
ships was a breather for the local economy. He also said that over 260
cruise ships are expected to dock at Katakolo port until the end of 2017.
