President Donald Trump is making statements to celebrate Greek Independence Day at the White House on Monday 24 March.
Trump Release Announcement in his first administration on March 24, 2020, acknowledging the holiday:
Our great American experience was inspired by ideas related to freedom, autonomy and the rule of law that followed its roots to ancient Greece. On the day of Greek independence, we celebrate the rich history of the United States and Greece, which protects our love for freedom and commitment to democratic institutions. We join the Greek people in the celebration another year of independence and unity.
The great thinkers of ancient Greece formulated the American pursuit of freedom and the republic, which was founded on the basic truth that people have undeniable rights. After decades, it inspired the same values ​​that motivated our revolution to search for their freedom and independence. In recognition of the common topics between the Battle of the Greeks to create a representative government and itself, many Americans supported Greek independence, which increased a non -fractured bond between the two countries.
Today, this conviction strengthens itself for a more free and more prosperous world of alliance between the United States and Greece. In October 2019, my administration worked with Greek officials to enhance and expand our partnership in defense and security by updating the United States Defense Cooperation Agreement. This agreement paves the way for close cooperation on national security issues between the two countries for decades to come. We are also grateful for the commitment of Greece, a strong NATO ally, for our marine presence in the Bay of Soda on the island of Crete. Through such efforts, the partnership between our countries provides our strategic national interests in the eastern Mediterranean, black and peaceful areas.
