Mitsotakis: Greece ‘will insist’ on the reunification of the Parthenon Marbles

“For two years now, we have enjoyed positive discussions with the Chair of the British Museum on a possible new partnership that brings the two parts of the sculptures together, as one, in Athens,” Greek Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis said in his message during a visit to New York.

“Let me be clear, we will insist on their reunification for many reasons, but one, in my mind, is the most important. Because only by being seen together, in situ, in the shadow of the Acropolis, can we truly appreciate their immense cultural importance for Western civilization,” he added.
