Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras will have bilateral meetings with Chinese Prime Minister Li Keqiang and India’s Deputy Prime Minister Venkaiah Naidu on Thursday and Friday in Brussels on the sidelines of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM), which includes 51 countries, 21 of them from Asia, plus Switzerland and Norway.

The decision to assume the Foreign Ministry himself marks his "determination to do whatever possible to guarantee the successful completion of the historic Prespes Agreement," Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said following the resignation of Nikos Kotzias as foreign minister.

Nikos Kotzias has resigned from the post of Foreign Minister, after a row between him and Defense Minister Panos Kammenos that broke out in the cabinmet meeting on Tuesday.
