“We honor the memory of our heroes and we are inspired over time by the meaning of their struggles “, is the message sent by the President of the Republic, Katerina Sakellaropoulou, who honors with her presence the anniversary events for the liberation of Ioannina.
The President of the Republic, after laying a wreath at the monument of the Byzantines, said: “Today we celebrate the liberation of Ioannina from the Turkish yoke, an anniversary of particular symbolic significance for Hellenism. Eighty-five days of fierce battles, led by the Battle of Bizani, justified with a proud victory the enthusiasm and unwavering patriotism of the Greeks. They restored to the national body the ancient Greek land of Epirus and incorporated in Greece Ioannina, a city of national benefactors, ingenious merchants, skilled craftsmen and teachers of the Nation. We honor the memory of our heroes and we are inspired over time by the meaning of their struggles “.
