Greek Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis met here on Monday evening Greek time, with U.S. Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns.

The meeting, which took place on the sidelines of the 62nd UN General Assembly session, focused on developments in the Balkans, with emphasis on the issue of Kosovo, and the Cyprus problem.

Bakoyannis met on Monday morning (local time) with her Albanian counterpart Lulzim Basha and was expected to meet Serbian President Boris Tadic at the UN headquarters later in the day.

In the context of Greece’s interest in the Middle East but also of the traditional good relations which Greece has with the region, Bakoyannis also met Monday morning with Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Saud Al-Faisal. 

All meetings are taking place on the sidelines of the 62nd UN General Assembly session.
