US state department spokesman Sean McCormack on Monday referred to Greek development minister Dimitris Sioufas' recent meeting at the State Department with deputy assistant secretary for energy Paul Simons.

Replying to questions during a regular press briefing, McCormack said: "There was a meeting on September 28th" and the two officials "reviewed cooperation between Greece and the United States on a variety of energy issues, including working together in the International Energy Association and also discussed Greece's energy sector liberalization, as well as Greek efforts to expand its pipeline connections with its neighbors."
