After Christmas, where he will be in New York, Kasselakis will travel to Melbourne, Victoria to be close to the Greek community in Australia.

He aims to show the significance of the diaspora around the world, as he begins to campaign ahead of the European Parliament elections next year.

For the first time ever, Greek diaspora will be able to vote in the elections via postal vote.
