The critical challenges the European Union is currently facing as well as the importance of the role he has undertaken were centered in the meeting between the European Union Commissioner for Migration, Home Affairs and Citizenship under the Juncker Commission, Dimitris Avramopoulos, and the President of the Hellenic Republic, Karolos Papoulias, earlier today.
“The mission we are called to complete in the name of our homeland and in the name of Europe, which is also ahead of major challenges, is of great significance. These are probably the most important five years since the establishment of the European Community, primary, and the European Union, later, while many things are at stake and I must tell you that the political character that has been given from EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker himself has inspired us all and we are determined to complete it with safety and certainty in a brand new future,” Avramopoulos said.
On his behalf, the Greek President congratulated Avramopoulos as it is their first meeting since he was appointed EU Commissioner, adding that his role “is of great significance both for Greece and the European Union.” Currently, the major issues Europe is facing are “the economy, unemployment and immigration. To these, we should add the issue of Europe’s security, as it is on top of interest to all European countries,” Avramopoulos replied.
Finally, Papoulias highlighted that the new year brought heavy workload and Avramopoulos answered that “we are used to it, we never laid back in our life, as we work since childhood.”
