The Greek Mitsotakis government, more pro-American than Americans themselves, has forbidden all meetings in an enormous part of Athens, in order not to annoy the new US Ambassador to Athens, Mrs. Guilfoyle, ex-fiancee of Donald Trump Jr. Kimberly Guilfoyle – Wikipedia
Kimberly Guilfoyle decided, during her first day in Greece, to participate to a “welcoming event” organized in her honor by the Association of Greek-Israeli Friendship!
The event took place in Parko Eleftherias (Freedom Park), next to the US Embassy. The park and the building where the event took place were the headquarters of the Special Investigation Department of the Military Police (EAT-EΣΑ) during the dictatorship the US government and CIA had imposed to Greece between 1967 and 1974. (For this tragic chapter in US – Greek relations, President Clinton himself felt the need to express his sorrow during a visit to Athens).
The park was named Freedom Park in order to honor the victims of the terrible tortures perpetrated there by the Greek Army officers at the service of the US and educated in the US.
Reacting to the announcement of this event members of the “Solidarity Assembly with the Palestinian Resistance” decided to organize a meeting of protest “against the welcoming ceremony of the Zionist American Ambassador”.
This announcement provoked a terrible wave of panic to the Greek government. The present Greek government is terrified by the idea that something can happen that will provoke discomfort to the US administration. For this reason the Police has forbidden all meetings for 24 hours even in areas many kilometers away from the Freedom Park.
In spite of the measures taken by the Greek police, demonstrators were able to gather in the place of the event sounding slogans against IDF and for Palestine. The police intervened and arrested 14 of them.
