Mitsotakis set to bolster bonds with Greek Diaspora in upcoming USA visit 

·

In a move to fortify connections with the global Greek community, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is gearing up for a significant visit to the United States next week. 

Mitsotakis’s USA visit kicks off on Wednesday with a prominent stop in New York City, where he will attend an investment forum hosted by JP Morgan. The event is poised to serve as a high-profile platform for the Greek government to showcase its pro-business credentials and highlight the favorable investment climate in the Greek economy to major U.S. investors.

During his stay in New York, Mitsotakis is slated to deliver a keynote address at Columbia University and engage in a joint appearance with Jamie Dimon, the influential chairman and CEO of JP Morgan Chase. These interactions are anticipated to underscore Greece’s economic potential and attractiveness to the global investment community.

The Prime Minister’s itinerary also includes a visit to Chicago, where he will connect with the significant ethnic Greek community in the Midwest. A key focus during this leg of the tour will be the promotion of an upcoming legislative initiative aiming to grant Greek citizens living abroad the right to vote through postal ballots.

Sources from the Maximos Mansion government seat reveal that Mitsotakis’s agenda during his USA visit will primarily revolve around national issues, the economy, and the upcoming European Parliament elections in June. International engagements and appearances are strategically aligned with these crucial priorities.

Highlighting the New York segment of the tour will be the inauguration of an exhibition on Cycladic Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Mitsotakis is also scheduled to engage in crucial meetings with representatives of Greek companies participating in the investment forum.

As the Greek Prime Minister undertakes this significant USA visit, his emphasis on engaging with Greeks abroad reflects the government’s dedication to strengthening ties with the global Greek diaspora.
