Pompeo speaks at 1st American Mediterranean Investment Forum
Former US secretary of state Mike Pompeo delivered the keynote speech at the 1st American Mediterranean Investment Forum organized by the Joseph Sassoon Group at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center in Athens on Wednesday.
In his address, Pompeo spoke of the significant relations between the United States and Greece and the Mediterranean, and emphasized security and economy issues, while referring to a common prosperity.
Asked about the EastMed natural gas pipeline project, he said that it had progressed significantly but a lot remained to be done.
The good news however, he said, was that the opportunities he saw as secretary of state in the East Mediterranean remained, and that the region’s location and infrastructure presented huge economic opportunities, as well as creating many openings and prosperity.
