Greece's chairmanship of the Council of Europe's Committee of Ministers "is a unique opportunity for the country to highlight its European identity and progress and to contribute to forging our joint European progress," President of the Hellenic Republic Katerina Sakellaropoulou said on Wednesday evening, according to ANA. Speaking at the inaugural event of Greece's chairmanship at the Temple of Olympian Zeus in Athens, Sakellaropoulou pointed out that the European Union should not respond to the coronavirus crisis financially or administratively alone, but politically. The pandemic, she noted, "is a major political ordeal that accelerated Europe's problems, both institutional and social, and highlighted the most vulnerable and fragile aspects of our symbiosis."\ RELATED TOPICS: Greece, Greek tourism news, Tourism in Greece, Greek islands, Hotels in Greece, Travel to Greece, Greek destinations, Greek travel market, Greek tourism statistics, Greek tourism report Photo Source: Wikimedia Commons License: CC-BY-SA Copyright: Andrikkos Let's block ads!
