Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis held a meeting today at the Maximos Mansion with Hans Kluge, the Regional Director for Europe of the World Health Organization (WHO). The key focus of their discussion was on enhancing Greece's collaboration with the WHO and ongoing reforms within the public health sector.
