Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis will participate in two events at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday and Friday (January 18-19).
On Thursday, Mitsotakis will participate in a discussion on "European Green Deal, Anyone?" starting at 09:00 local time (10:00 Athens time). According to the agenda, the focus will be as follows: "In its ambition to make Europe climate-neutral by 2050, the European Commission led the rollout of era-defining green legislation during its current term and aims to mobilize at least 1 trillion euros in sustainable investments over the next decade. As the European Green Deal faces political headwinds in the run-up to the 2024 parliamentary elections, what does its future look like?"
Besides Mitsotakis, speakers will include Euronews Senior Business Editor Sasha Vakulina, DTEK Group CEO Maxim Timchenko, European Commission Executive Vice-President for European Green Deal, Interinstitutional Relations and Foresight Maros Sefcovic, and Novozymes President and CEO Ester Baiget.
Also on Thursday, the premier will participate in a discussion with Foreign Policy magazine Editor-in-Chief Ravi Agrawal at 15:00 local time (16:00 Athens time). The conversation is under the Forum's Center for Regions, Trade and Geopolitics, and related to shaping progress on priorities during complex geopolitical times.
Following this conversation, Mitsotakis will meet with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
On Friday morning, the premier will be interviewed by Bloomberg TV and journalist Francine Lacqua.
