0:26 Speaker 2 Very good morning and congratulations to all of us. God bless Greece, and we love America, who always takes care of us, and I have lived many years there, so both countries very much. I’m moving a lot between Greece and New York. Athens is almost my main base now, so I see a lot of activity there. Everybody loves

0:56 the relationship that we have with America, and as you see every year, we all send the ab zones out to walk down Fifth Avenue, a very proud day for us and I think for all Greeks and non Greeks to to to see that. Obviously, the Greek community that you also support very strongly is one of the best

1:19 and takes care of America as best as they can, and we love to keep that relationship strong.

1:27 Speaker 1 Well. I had a very good time in uh in London, we celebrated the one year memorial of your your dad passing because he was I thought he was a very great person. And uh, his Royal Highness King Charles hosted us at Windsor Castle and uh in Saint John’s Cathedral there, and we went to the Greek cathedral, the Saint Sophia

2:02 on in London, and those were truly great experiences and and thank you for including us in in the celebrations.

2:12 Speaker 2 Of course, my father, you know, really liked the relationship with his friends in America, and uh, I know we had tried to do something a year before, but there were certain COVID problems going on at the time and it was difficult to get the right crowd around. But His Majesty was so nice to have us in in

2:33 the Georgia Chaplain Windsor, which was beautiful and having you guys around made it even more special. And then doing our own memorial down in Interphere in London was lovely as well. My combination was was was was perfect, and it just shows the strength of our relationship with the British royal family and ourselves keeps going strong. And I’m

2:56 glad that you guys got a chance to see some of that. It’s good. It’s a whole different pomp ceremony that’s over there, but it was true and very much the family was united there and close friends. Was a very select crowd, and so I’m glad you guys were there.
