(Thessaloniki, Patras, Alexandroupoli, Lavrio and Rafina) with the railway
network.
In this way, they change the transport map, upgrade the commercial
and strategic scope of the ports, facilitate the connection of our country with
the rest of Southeastern Europe and strengthen its international role.
