Today and every day, let us celebrate and NOT forget the nine years and many battles for the Ottoman Empire to finally accept Greek autonomy, – and let us continue to draw strength from the ideas put forth and the example set by our two countries. Guided by our highest hopes and ideals, let us recommit to preserving, defending, and protecting democracy- together.
