NICOSIA, 1st February 2016 – The leaders of the Governments of Cyprus, Greece and Israel re-affirmed during the historic Tripartite Meeting on 28th January 2016 in Nicosia their full support towards the Project EuroAsia InterConnector, the submarine electric cable with length of 1518 km, which will connect the electricity grids of Israel, Greece and Cyprus with mainland Europe.
