MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Earlier in the day, the two leaders held a phone conversation, the first since Tsipras' return to power following a parliamentary election last week.

The leaders of Russia and Greece agreed to continue to make contact with each other, according to the statement.
Putin also congratulated Tsipras, whose left-wing Syriza party had won the snap elections held in Greece on Sunday, on his political victory.
Earlier this week, the Russian leader sent a congratulatory telegram to Tsipras to this end.
