The Israel Ports Company and the Greek Embassy in Israel have agreed to tighten maritime cooperation, according to a Ynet report. The agreement follows a working meeting earlier Thursday between Israel Ports Company chairman Eitam Almedon and Greek Ambassador Maya Solomou, which The Zioneer covered at 12:24 Jerusalem time. That meeting focused on advancing the IMEC (India-Middle-East-Europe) international trade corridor and deepening bilateral maritime ties. The IMEC corridor, a U.S.-backed initiative, aims to link India to Europe via the Gulf, Jordan, Israel, and Greece, bypassing the Suez Canal. Greece and Israel have been deepening strategic cooperation in recent years, including naval exercises, defense procurement, and energy partnerships. The Thursday agreement marks a formal step in consolidating the maritime dimension of the relationship.
