Obama posts video from the Acropolis
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
With Athens in the foreground and then the Acropolis, the video uploaded by President Obama on his facebook page impressively captures moments of the visit of US President at the archaeological site and the Acropolis Museum.
As he notes: "On my last overseas trip as president, I finally had the opportunity to visit Greece and take in the beautiful history of this country. Standing at the Acropolis, in the birthplace of democracy and the democratic values we hold dear as Americans, you gain perspective on the importance of a government of the people, by the people, and for the people - and how people, no matter what nation we belong to, will decide the kind of countries we will be, the ideals we'll keep reaching for, and the values that will define us."
