I explained to her that it is a special circumstance, for the Alliance, for Greece and for the United States of America. There are possibilities for multiple cooperation in the energy and defence sectors. From the United States – an ally who, after World War II, helped Greece to stand on its feet with the Marshall Plan – we expect cooperation, sincere cooperation. I believe that we can make it”.
