Reactions to Marco Rubio's visit to Athens
American politician Marco Rubio is expected to be in Greece on October 6 and 7. His visit is taking place in the context of the 6th round of the Strategic Dialogue between Greece and the United States, a process aimed at strengthening bilateral relations between the two countries.
However, Mr. Rubio's impending arrival has sparked strong reactions from the New Left party. In a statement, party officials expressed their opposition to the American politician's presence in the country, labeling him "unwelcome" due to his far-right political views.
The Greece-US Strategic Dialogue is an important event for the country's foreign policy, as issues of security, defense, and economic cooperation are discussed. Despite the political disagreements expressed by the opposition, the government is continuing with the scheduling of meetings with American officials.
Marco Rubio's presence in Athens is expected to draw public attention, as relations with the US remain a central issue in the Greek political scene. Authorities are preparing for the conduct of the dialogue, while the possibility of further political reactions during his visit remains open.
