Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis officially welcomed Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud to Athens on Tuesday, a closely watched and highly anticipated visit by the de facto leader of the major Mideast country and energy giant, who also headed up a sizeable Saudi delegation.

The official visit today and tomorrow of the crown prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud (MBS) to Greece and his meeting with Kyriakos Mitsotakis today at his office at Maximos Mansion comes to highlight the strategic nature of Greece-Saudi Arabia relations, which was confirmed during the Prime Minister's official visit to Riyadh in October 2021, and is expected to be sealed with the signing of a series of bilateral agreements in Athens. The visit also marks the strong interest of the Saudi side in major investments in Greece.
