Two years ago, Greece missed the chance
to extricate from the crisis with Russia's help. Nowadays, Russian
investments in the country grow and give air to breathe to economies of
several regions of Greece, such as the north-east. Russian investors are
especially attracted by cheap real estate, tourism and the property
that they can buy from the state.
"Greece should only give Russia the
green light, and the Russian money will come," said Ivan Savvidi, a
businessman and the president of the Association of Greek Public
Organizations of Russia said. "If Greece asks Russian business, I can
tell you that by October next year, Greece will become a prosperous
country," the BBC quoted Savvidi, a former deputy of the Russian State Duma.
