 Needed: An Ultramodern "Peter the Great" for Greece
Turkey’s refusal to recognize the Republic of Cyprus, a full EU member, the continuing attacks against the Patriarchate, perpetuation of the casus belli against Greece and the relentless air-space violations over the Aegean, are all ominous signs.
The fact remains that despite EU and NATO memberships, Greece is diplomatically on the defensive, with many in EU and the United States still favoring Turkey, despite her poor record on human rights, and bellicosity of her Armed Forces which are not under civilian control.
We strongly believe that what the Republic of Greece urgently needs is a strong magnetic leader, and courageous reformer, who will galvanize and inspire the Greek people and their Diaspora, by implementing a cultural and organizational revolution.
