“We will make sure to ensure that the national sovereignty and territorial integrity” said, among other things, the ambassador of the United States in Greece
“Greece always stands on the right side of History”emphasized the ambassador of the United States in Greece, George Tsounis, in his statements after the end of the magnificent military parade in Thessaloniki for the national anniversary of October 28, which he watched from the official podium.
“Our two countries have a special obligation to take care to preserve the Democracy”, he noted and added emphatically: “Either we will be with the Democracy or with the autocracy. We will take care to ensure that national sovereignty and territorial integrity are protected unlike what Mr. Putin is doing. I am very proud that Greece and the United Statescontinue to stand side by side to protect the Republic, to protect the national sovereignty, because Greece always stands on the right side of History”.
“Happy Birthday. It is a special honor to be here, in Thessaloniki,” Mr. Tsounis said in Greek, beginning his statement, and continuing in English he recalled that when he came to Greece last May to assume his duties as ambassador, it was the anniversary of VE DAY (Victory in Europe Day), Victory in Europe Day, while the national anniversary of October 28 is intertwined with the country’s entry into World War II and this, as he said, “is important because it demonstrates the Greek spirit and Greek character”.
“When work is difficult, when issues of justice and equality are at stake, the Greeks show up. Their honor, their honor, dictates them to fight when the Republic is challenged”, he explained and described the fact that he is serving as an ambassador to the country that established the Republic as a privilege.
He also expressed pride in the fact that in the United States “we value Democracy and many of our democratic ideals come from ancient Greece.”
