Mr. Mitsotakis gave An interview with Breitbart the day before, sending a message to Washington that it is seeking a win-win solution to commercial disagreements And that the goal would be to avoid a trade war. A few hours later, Mr Trump announced a three -month cessation of implementation of duty on full -scale and in Athens the government was taking a “breath”, no matter how much the international environment has many strangers.

This is another reason Mr Mitsotakis invests further in the strategic relationship with the Israelwhile also proposing Greece’s participation in his project Imec as a counterweight to Chinese plans for a commercial corridor that will extend to Europe. The “cigarette”, after all, as the prime minister described it, is to form a strategic relationship of Greece with the US that will transcend both his own term and that of Mr Trump and will be “shielded” against co -existence.
