Bilateral Relations

Political Relations
Useful Information
Relations between the two countries are good, bilateral and multilateral cooperation is satisfactory. Greece took immediate action upon the news of the tsunami that hit regions in Southeast Asia, in December 2004, in order to provide relief and to help those affected by the tsunami. A Greek cruiseship carrying 500 tons of emergency humanitarian aid, including pharmaceutical and medical supplies, sailed from Athens for Sri Lanka. The boat remained in Trincomalee port for 3 months, operating as a hospital ward. With regard to long-term development aid, more than €8 million have been allocated as financing for reconstruction and infrastructure projects in the sectors of education, health, fishing and shipping.
