President Sakellaropoulou: Thrace was and must continue to be an example of equality
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
"The city of Xanthi and the region of Thrace in general was and must continue to be an example of equality. A bridge of friendship, a multicultural region where people of different religions co-exist peacefully and cooperate for their common progress," stated President of the Hellenic Republic Katerina Sakellaropoulou on Thursday, after being pronounced an honorary citizen of Xanthi.
"Prejudices have never been helpful nor can they help now that the contemporary common challenges, as epidemics, the migration and refugee issue or climate change transcend borders and continents. Challenges that so huge that they can only be faced through international cooperation on a scientific, political, social and economic level, as was clearly shown during the pandemic," Sakellaropoulou said.
