HACCI hosts meeting with Ambassador-Designate of Greece to Australia

·

The HACCI National Federation had a very warm and fruitful video meeting with Stavros Venizelos, Ambassador-Designate of Greece to Australia, this week.

HACCI National Federation council (and HACCI Victoria Board) chair Fotini Kypraios, and council members Angela Tomazos (Chair of HACCI NT), Elena Limnios (Chair of HACCI WA), and Kosta Koutsonas (Chair of HACCI SA) took the opportunity to confirm their commitment to working closely with the Greek government, ministries and other trade and industry bodies, facilitating communication and bilateral relations and trade opportunities between Australia and Greece.

Among the issues discussed was the need for greater resource allocation to the state-based consulates across Australia, and particularly for additional online services, as well the new strategic plan of the Greek Government for the Greeks of the Diaspora.

HACCI National Federation thanked Ambassador-Designate Venizelos for his commitment to addressing the issues discussed, and wished him the best in his new duties.
