Prime Minister Kallistratos, Let me first welcome you and your nation onto the international stage. Your nation's vibrant and rich history and culture make you a valuable asset to the international stage of politics. Our own history is intertwined throughout history with Polish volunteers assisting in the Battle of Peta and Jerzy Iwanow-Szajnowicz who worked as a saboteur for the Greek resistance during World War Two. Your strategic location between the Aegean, Mediterannean, and the Sea of Crete also brings a unique understanding and point of view to the international stage. I am eager to expand upon our past diplomatic experience while also increasing our diplomatic ties to the your nation. With the global rise of terror as seen with the terrorist attacks in the United Kingdom and even within Poland itself, would like to help Greece gain a better understanding of the current state of international relations while also begin preparing its military for any possible scenario. Our ambassador to Greece is prepared to engage in constructive talks and help identify areas we can expand our relations such as trade, cultural exchanges, tourism, and security of the region. I will end this communication with an excerpt from one of my favorite Greek philosophers. "Perfect friendship is the friendship of those who are good and alike in virtue. For these friends wish well to each other for their own sake, and they are good in themselves. Those who wish good things to their friends for their friends’ sake are the truest friends, because they do so because of the nature of the other person, not because of any incidental benefit. Such friendships are rare because people of high moral character are few. Also, such friendship requires time and familiarity; as the proverb says, people cannot truly know each other until they have ‘eaten salt together.’ Friendships based on pleasure or utility are easily dissolved when the pleasure fades or the benefit is no longer present. But friendships based on virtue last as long as the friends remain virtuous, and virtue is a stable quality. A true friend is like another self. Just as a virtuous person finds joy in their own good actions, so too do they find joy in the goodness of their friend. Therefore, such friendships contribute to happiness, for no one would choose to live without friends, even if they had everything else." |
