The Greek Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, and the United States President, Joe Biden, are expected to discuss a wide range of issues including the strategic Greece-US partnership and the Russian invasion of Ukraine when they meet in Washington on Monday, government sources said on Sunday.
Government sources said the premier is also expected to raise the issue of Turkish provocations, particularly flights over Greek territories, and their undermining of NATO’s cohesion during a time calling for unity. The PM is also expected to raise the issue of energy differentiation in Europe and delinking from Russian imports of oil and natural gas, and speak of key American investments in Greece, including Pfizer and Microsoft.
President Biden and his spouse will host a reception following their meeting at the White House for Mitsotakis and his spouse that will celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Greek War of Independence.
Prior to his meeting with the US president, Mitsotakis will chat with Washington Post journalist, David Ignatius, at Georgetown University.
On Tuesday, Mitsotakis is scheduled to meet the US president at the White House, before addressing Congress in a joint session, following an invitation by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. He is also expected to meet with members of Congress who have supported issues of Greek interest.
Before returning to Greece, the PM will also attend a dinner hosted by 11 organizations of the Greek diaspora.
This will be Mitsotakis’ second visit to the White House after assuming his duties. During the first one, in January 2020, he met with the former president, Donald Trump.
