China will also work with Greece to promote high-quality cooperation on the Piraeus Port project, continue to deepen cultural exchanges and maintain communication and coordination within the multilateral framework to promote the healthy and stable development of China-Europe relations, he said.
Mitsotakis said that Greece adheres to the one-China principle. He hopes to strengthen cooperation between the two sides in trade, investment, shipping, culture and other fields, and welcomes Chinese companies to increase their presence in the Greek market.
Greece supports Europe and China to strengthen dialog and work together to address global challenges such as climate change, he said.
During the talks with Tasoulas, Zhao said that the National People's Congress of China is willing to work with the Hellenic Parliament to strengthen friendly exchanges between legislative bodies and learn from each other's legislative and supervisory experiences in social governance, ecological protection, and opening up.
Zhao introduced the relevant situation of promoting Chinese modernization and expressed his willingness to work hand in hand with Greece on the road of development and revitalization, so that the two ancient civilizations of China and Greece will shine with new brilliance in the new era.
Tasoulas said that China's great development achievements are inseparable from its profound cultural accumulation. The legislative bodies of the two countries can make greater efforts in legislation and other aspects to promote cultural and people-to-people exchanges.
