Archbishop of America Elpidophoros welcomes Greek PM Mitsotakis in NYC

The Archbishop of America, His Eminence Elpidophoros, on Wednesday met with representatives of the Greek Diaspora in New York City, in the presence of Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. The latter is visiting the metropolis on the occasion of the 77th UN General Assembly.
Mitsotakis is due to address the General Assembly’s plenum on Friday.

According to Archbishop Elpidophoros “…We gathered with the leaders of the Diaspora today and asked God’s blessing for Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, his government and for Greeks around the world. We prayed for the preservation of freedom and for peace and stability in the world.”

On his part, the Greek prime minister, speaking during a luncheon held in his honor by expatriate organizations of New York, expressed his satisfaction with the fact that the Greek American community is once again concerned with what is occurring in the motherland.

The foreign minister of the Republic of Cyprus, Ioannis Kasoulides, was also present at the event and was welcomed by the Greek Prime Minister, who emphasized that “…we should not forget that the wound of Cyprus is still open, and that 48 years after the Turkish invasion, the problem of the unification of the island has unfortunately not yet been solved.”
