Russia: Greek PM Tsipras lays flowers at Tomb of Unknown Soldier in Moscow

Prime Minister of Greece Alexis Tsipras laid flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, ahead of a bilateral meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Friday.

Tsipras will also hold a meeting with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev to discuss joint infrastructure projects, the gas transit sector, current international and regional issues and the prospects for trade and economic cooperation.

This is Tsipras’ first visit to Russia since two Russian diplomats were expelled from Greece over alleged interference in the Macedonia name dispute settlement.
