Government of Greece and TAP sign host government agreement / Endgültiges Aus für Nabucco - Konsortium entscheidet für TAP
The
Greek Government (the Ministry of Energy, Environment and Climate
Change – MEECC) and the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) project have today
signed the Host Government Agreement (HGA) in Athens, agreed in
principle last week.
The HGA sets out the framework by which the project will be realized and operated on Greek territory. This includes processes related to land easement and acquisition, the implementation of technical, safety, environmental and social standards and permitting.
TAP will be one of the largest sources of foreign direct investment in Greece, and is estimated to cost approximately Euro 1.5 bn for the Greek section. During construction, TAP is anticipated to create some 2,000 direct, and up to 10,000 indirect, new jobs across a number of industries including manufacturing and utilities, transport, communications and financial and business services. The project already collaborates with a number of Greek businesses and experts, and will seek to expand such cooperation in line with its commitment to Local Content.

Ten years since the signature of the Treaty of Athens
Ten years ago, on April 16, 2003, the Treaty of Accession to the
European Union of 10 European countries – the Czech Republic, Estonia,
Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia
– was signed in Athens. This historical event took place during the
Greek Presidency of the Council of the European Union and is enshrined
forever as one of the most important documents of the reunited Europe.
Later,
on May 1, 2004, all our countries became fully fledged members of the
reunified European family comprising 25 member states at that time. It
was the largest single expansion since the Paris Treaty of 1951, the
forerunner of the EU, in terms of population, number of states and
territory.
Moreover, it was the symbolic completion of the vital strategic goal of all the acceding member states to finally put an end to the post-World War II period by returning to the common space of freedom and stability, democracy and prosperity. The signature of the Treaty of Athens opened a new era for the acceding countries, for their citizens and ultimately for the whole of Europe.
