A delegation of United Arab Emirates’ company Taqa has reaffirmed its interest in participating in the Great Sea Interconnector, connecting the electric grids of Cyprus and Greece.
The delegation met with President Nikos Christodoulides on the sidelines of the UN general assembly in New York.
In a written statement, government spokesman Konstantinos Letymbiotis said the meeting was a follow-up of the president’s trip to UAE on September 9, during which the two countries agreed to intensify cooperation in various sectors, including energy.
Letymbiotis said ways to expand and expedite cooperation were discussed during Monday’s meeting.
Christodoulides and Taqa agreed their delegations would be meeting over the next few weeks to draft a roadmap on the next steps.
