| Up to date, the Greek-Czech co-operation
is regulated by the «Agreement between the Ministry of Agriculture of
Greek Republic and the Ministry of Agriculture of Czech Republic for economic,
scientific and technical co-operation in the field of agriculture» (Prague, 16.11.2000). Even so, no activity between the two
countries has been developed in the framework of this Agreement. |
| The Czech Minister of Agriculture visited the 20th International
Exposition «AGROTICA» in Thessaloniki, responding to the Greek Minister.
Discussions were primarily focused on areas of common interest, with a view
to expanding the bilateral relations of the two countries in the field of
agriculture, especially after Czech Republic has become full member of the
EU (01.05.2004). High priority was given to the sectors of agricultural
research, plant production, animal husbandry, sanitary controls, food safety
and agricultural processing industries. |
It is also important to mention that two suggestions were put forward, on
which both parties agreed and concluded:
a)
Bringing together and strengthening the co-operation
between Greek and Czech businessmen acting in the field of agriculture
and food
b)
Forming a joint work-group of experts from the
Ministries of both countries in formulate a time-schedule for the plan
of the future co-operation. |
