Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Wednesday met with Patriarch of Alexandria and All Africa Theodoros II at Maximos Mansion, according to ANA.
Theodoros reportedly emphasized the significance of the African continent in the modern world and called for the Prime Minister’s support for the missionary work carried out by the Patriarchate of Alexandria.
Mitsotakis thanked the Patriarch for his visit, stressed the timely support of Greece to the Patriarchate and its work, and expressed his deep appreciation and respect for the Patriarch.
Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister for Expatriate Greeks Antonis Diamataris also earlier met with Theodoros II, to whom he said that the Greek state “has always been on the side of the Church, in support of its humanitarian and pastoral action.”
