Leonidas Palaiodimos mentioned that Foreign Minister Rubio spoke at the Pnyx about Western, European culture, which he described as the greatest in the history of humanity, stating that it was born in Greece, flourished in Europe, and spread beyond it. Palaiodimos commented that, in his opinion, these are self-evident truths that many are afraid to say for fear of being labeled racists. He added that Rubio had argued that devotion to the nation is neither selfish nor wrong. Palaiodimos noted that he considered the lack of devotion to the nation to be selfish — or, depending on the case, self-flagellating. He also said that he was embarrassed by the fact that, as he perceived it, Rubio showed more enthusiasm and gratitude for the contribution of the Greeks to the world than Greek politicians and part of the Greek people did. #Πολιτισμός #Ελλάδα #Έθνος (translated)
