Ελευθερία ή θάνατος


Philhellenism


The Department has noted with considerable apprehension increasing propaganda rumors and semi-official statements in favor of an autonomous Macedonia emanating from Bulgaria, but also from Yugoslav partisan and other sources with the implication that Greek territory would be included in the projected State. This Government considers talk of "Macedonian Nation", "Macedonian Fatherland", or "Macedonian National Consciousness" to be unjustified demagoguery representing no ethnic or political reality, and sees in its present revival a possible cloak for aggressive intentions against Greece.


Secretary of State E. Stettinius on December 26th 1944


I believe that Greece is right to object and I agree with Athens. The reason is that I know history, which is not the case with most of the others, including most of the Government and administration in Washington…. The strength of the Greek case is that of history, which I must say, that Athens has not used so far with success.


Henry Kissinger in the annual meeting of Management Centre Europe held in Paris in 1992


...the lasting debt of gratitude to the People of Greece and all People of Greek heritage for the Democratic ideals which inspired the founding of our own Nation.


A day of national Celebration of Greek and American Democracy being proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan on March 25th 1987.
