PM: The Greeks can accomplish everything if they remain united

“Freedom means to wage, united, the war against the tribulations we face, our enemies that have designs against us, and our own bad self, far removed from divisive slogans, the fatalism of subjugation and from national inferiority complexes,” Prime Minister Antonis Samaras said on Monday, in a message on the 192nd anniversary of the March 25 Greek national Independence Day, which marks the start of the Greek revolution

against Ottoman rule on March 25, 1821.

Samaras called the anniversary a “day of historic memory, in days of national tribulation, for all of Hellenism and today, especially, for Cyprus”.

However, he added, “it suffices for us to look back at our entire contemporary history to realise how many tribulations we have gone through, always in a painful way, but always with success”

“And we always emerged stronger as a nation, better as a society, and prouder for what we are, more certain of what we can achieve. Provided that we remain united and standing,” Samaras continued.

“The Greeks can accomplish everything if they remain united and standing,” the prime minister concluded.
