“In a period of a dual crisis, with the challenges and aggressive behavior of our neighbors peaking and the pandemic threatening public health and our economy, the people of Thrace have once again proven their sense of responsibility and fighting spirit. Together with our Armed Forces, calmly and with a high-minded spirit of patriotism, they protect the Greek borders, the borders of Europe,” President of the Hellenic Republic Katerina Sakellaropoulou said on Thursday in her message marking 100 years since the liberation of Thrace, ANA reports.
The Greek President stressed that Greece today celebrated Alexandroupolis, honoring its history and welcoming its prospects. “One of the newest cities in our country, it does not only boast of high quality of life, respect for the environment, and interesting artistic and intellectual activity. Due to its geographical location, it has the potential to become a hub for growth throughout the region, becoming the main gateway between the European Union, the Mediterranean, Asia, and the Black Sea,” she said.
