ATHENS: Greece hopes that Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan's official visit to Athens later this week can improve relations between the two countries, its government spokesman said on Tuesday.
Erdogan will be the first Turkish president to visit Greece in 65 years. He will discuss bilateral relations and regional issues during his two-day visit on Dec. 7-8.
"Issues that concern the two countries will be on the agenda of talks - tensions in the Aegean Sea, the refugee crisis, economic relations with a focus on energy, trade and transport," Greek government spokesman Dimitris Tzanakopoulos said.
"What we anticipate is a substantive upgrade of our relationship with Turkey as this can play a catalytic role towards growth," he said." We expect very constructive talks."
