In a meeting held on the sidelines of the IT travel trade fair in Berlin, Mashat and her Cypriot and Greek counterparts, Yiorgos Lakkotrypis and Elena Kountoura, respectively, agreed to form a joint working group to study the newly-reached agreement.
The study will include maritime ports of the three countries to which the cruises will visit, Mashat said.
