The full message of President Biden to the President of the Hellenic Republic follows:
“Dear Madam President,
I am pleased to congratulate the Greek people on the historic anniversary of their two hundred years of struggle for independence.
The Greek fighters of 1821 were inspired by the ideals and actions of the American Revolution, just as the American revolutionaries and the Fathers of our Nation were inspired by the example of the Athenian democracy. And for more than 200 years, Greeks and Americans have coexisted, respecting and defending the principles of democracy that inspired our revolutions. I participate together with the Greek people and the millions of proud Greek-Americans in celebrating this joyful anniversary.
Greece is a key NATO ally and a close friend of the United States, providing stability and actively contributing to peace and prosperity in the Eastern Mediterranean, Black Sea and Western Balkans. During my career, I have had the privilege of working closely with many Greek prime ministers and talking at length with His Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew. As President, I look forward to continuing the glorious tradition of further strengthening cooperation between the two countries and reaffirming our common commitment to the Transatlantic Alliance and to all the common values that unite us.
Sincerely yours,
Joseph R. Biden Jr. »
