So how “isolated” is Kyriakos Mitsotakis <\/b> abroad?<\/p>\n
Is he so isolated that he found himself as the keynote speaker<\/b> at the Mario Draghi<\/b> with the historic Carlo Magna Charlemagne Award<\/b> in Aachen, Germany<\/b>? Is he so isolated that he spoke in front of Europe’s most powerful political<\/b> and economic leaders, in a ceremony of enormous political and symbolic weight for the entire European Union;<\/p>\n
For as much as some in Greece insist on presenting a country supposedly disconnected<\/b> and without international prestige, reality contradicts them in the most resounding way<\/b>. The image of Greece abroad<\/b> has changed radically. And this is not only reflected in economic indicators or investments. It is seen mainly in the way the country is now treated in the major European decision-making centres.<\/p>\n
In Aachen, Greece was not just present<\/b>. It was at the focus<\/b>. Kyriakos Mitsotakis<\/b> not only participated in a historic moment for Europe, but was applauded<\/b>, and there were public references to the progress the country has made in recent years. The same Greece that a decade ago was presented as an example of crisis and weakness is now seen as a factor of stability and credibility.<\/b><\/p>\n
And ultimately this is what bothers those who invest politically in destructiveness<\/b> the most. That while the narrative of decadence and international isolation is being cultivated daily at home, Europe’s biggest “heads” come along and deconstruct it in practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
