Greek President Lays a Wreath at the Monument of the Unknown Soldier

ATHENS — President of the Hellenic Republic Katerina Sakellaropoulou on Monday attended the memorial ceremony at the Cathedral of Athens for the Day of Philhellenism and International Solidarity.

Sakellaropoulou laid a wreath at the Monument of the Unknown Soldier and said: "Today we honour the Philhellenes, who saw the Greek Revolution as a source of inspiration and aspirations and sided with it. The Europeans and Americans who fought beside the insurgent Greeks, all those who strengthened morally and materially the struggle of 1821 and internationalised it, contributing to its favourable outcome. We remember them with emotion and gratitude."
