European Union
Why Greece should leave the E.U.
Written By: Dimitri Karnavas
The Greece we know today was born when Greek patriots declared independence from the Ottomans in 1821, fighting multiple costly wars for years against the Turks, who had amassed a European empire and enslaved Greeks for over three hundred years. While our ancestors bravely fought their oppressors and established independence from the Turks over two centuries ago, the European Union today curtails our independence and sovereignty in trade, immigration, and defense.
