Athens, Greek Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis told Breitbart News Exclusive in an interview in his office here that he believes that Europe can reach a “win-win” commercial agreement with US president Donald Trump that he is “beneficial mutual”.
Mitsotakis comments occur when the EU has just launched new commercial actions with respect to the United States. The actions, which focus on steel and aluminum, were planned mainly before the launch of Trump’s world rate last week. The silenced response of Europe is a strong contrast with China, which quickly intensified against Trump’s tariff The road went down that path.
“There is a European message and there is a Greek message,” Mitsotakis told Breitbart News when his message for Trump’s duration was asked for a half -hour interview in his office in Maximos Mansion in the capital of Greece, Athens. “On the European Front there is the possibility of finding a win-win solution when it comes to commerce, a solution that will be beneficial mutual. It is my firm belief from the beginning, before the tariffs were announced. Response beyond what has been announced today, was the expected reaction of the EU.
Mitsotakis’s interview with Breitbart News sends a European signal that European leaders because working with Trump and seems that a broader realization is being settled throughout the continent that Trump’s real objective seems to be China. Mitsotakis’s interview also occurs after the president of the EU Commission, Ursula Von Leyen, has been publicly sacrificed earlier this week to launch the European signal of a will to work with Trump instead against him. The White House has regularly highlighted these countries that approach and offer to negotiate with the US president as a way of showing progress after Trump’s announcement, and also to try to relieve market tensions as Wall Street has been.

When it comes to a specific Greek message, Mitsotakis told Breitbart News that European cakes and nations. IMEEC, which represents the economic corridor of India-East-Europe-Europe, is seen by many in the West as a counter led by the United States for the Belt and Road initiative of the Chinese communist parties. Mitsotakis framed the IMEEC corridor as one that connects the greatest democracy in the world in India, one side, the most powerful democracy in the world in the United States on the other, and attached in the middle by the proof government of the ristory of the place of birth that would dominate the West for millennia.
“With regard to Greece, we have a strategic association with the United States,” Mitsotakis said. “And when I look at IMEEC, Greece, the place of birth of democracy, it can be the bridge between the greatest democracy in the world and the most powerful and stronger democracy. For geopolitical and economic reasons, Greece costs him Ally and work work and work. Well with him again addressing regional challenges.”
IMEEC will surely be an important topic of conversation in the next Delphi Economic Forum in World Historic Delphi, Greece, which begins on Wednesday and continues until Saturday. That is why Breitbart News is in Greece, since this journalist will modify and participate in several discussions of panels and interviews in the annual meeting focused on the Trump and Commerce policy, as well as the widest vision of the President for La Paz to end the Warla, to end the warning consists of the warning in the Middle East, a signatory achievement of Trump’s first mandate.
Trump Himelf has spoken very very well of IMEEC, and recently he told Breitbart News only a few weeks ago in an exclusive interview in the White House that the agreement represented a “group of wonderful nations” that joined “countertops that appearance. I deal and beyond that in future possible agreements, but also asked US partners such as the European and Indian union to be fair Joined.
“We have a powerful group of partners in commerce,” Trump told Breitbart News in that interview in mid -March. “Once again, we cannot let these partners treat us badly, however. Frankly, we do it in many ways with our enemies than with our friends. Those who would not be so friendly to us in some cases treat us better than those who are supposed to be friendly, such as the European Union, which treats us terrible for trade.
Mitsotakis leads the new Democracy Party of the center of the right here in Greece and has served as prime minister since his electoral victory in 2019, so he worked with Trump’s first mandate, Trump’s first mandate and both have an existing date date date. After his victory in 2019, Mitsotakis implemented strict border and migratory controls in Greece that extended against much of the conventional wisdom between the chosen leadership of Europe at that time and they fit much more to the vision of thattt, from a more global and open European limit to European migration controls.
“Greece is at the forefront of migration, a first -line country,” Mitsotakis told Breitbart News. “We followed a hard but fair migration policy and I was the first to press for border protection. When we started this policy in 2020, we were the exception in the EU, the atypical values. Now Todoyona in Europe understands the importance of border protection. It is not Notterec. Without apologies when it comes to border and open protection when it comes to legal migration.”
Greece has also recovered economically from economic crises before Mitsotakis mandate largely thanks to its conservative economic policies. Mitsotakis told Breitbart News that these are in line with Trump’s economic vision to reduce taxes and regulations to generate economic growth.
“We have made a remarkable return after the economic crisis, after a strategy of reducing taxes and bureaucracy, a proinversion and proderregulation economic policy that supports job creation,” Mitsotakis said.
