Defense Minister Benny Gantz met with the Greek and Cypriot defense ministers today in Cypress.

Gantz addressed joint projects between Israel and her two neighboring Mediterranean countries.

"We discussed here today our increased and wide-ranging cooperation in military-industrial projects that will strengthen our defenses and create thousands of jobs for our three economies.

"I believe that our advanced technologies and the good relations between our countries can help reinvigorate tourism and economic cooperation among us," Gantz said.
