Doha: Qatar and the Republic of Greece signed several cooperation agreements yesterday and the most important of which is an agreement to establish a joint fund to invest in small and medium industries in Greece.

This was announced at a joint press conference by the Prime Minister and Foreign Minister H E Sheikh Hamad bin Jassem bin Jabor Al Thani and the visiting Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras. 

“We want to match the agreement for establishing the Fund with what we have done with Italy a few months ago where we had agreed with them to create a joint fund with a capital of ¤2bn equally between the two countries,” said Sheikh Hamad bin Jassem.
