On Monday afternoon (15/9), Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew was at the White House to meet with US President Donald Trump.

Archbishop Ieronymos of Athens and All Greece gave an interview to the American media outlet Breitbart, emphasizing that the “Trump election” was a positive development.

Anxiety is intensifying in the Greek export community, following the new tariffs announced last night by Donald Trump, which include 20% on products originating from the EU. Although there was no explicit mention of Greece in the relevant announcements by the American president, the fact remains that targeting the European Union, which he accuses of unfair tariffs on American products, opens the door to problems that Greek products exported to the US will face.
