The entire statement of Nikos Androulakis:

Glorious pages of our modern history were written in the mountains of Pindos.

Our people with few means, but with the weapon of national unity, defeated a stronger opponent.

That is why, 84 years later, we honor the heroes, who gave everything on the front line of the battle for the freedom of our country, achieving a very great victory.

However, today we have a duty as a country to send a clear message to those who consult as revisionists of History in our national interests.

We do not accept any kind of haggling.

We want respect for our sovereign rights.

So, the only thing we have to share with our neighbors is a common understanding of respect for international law and for this to be the basis of the prosperity and progress of all the peoples of the wider region.
