KTE policy
Official Statement on the 2024 Presidential Election
Written By: Alexandros
Regardless of the 2024 presidential election results, KTE believes that America is plagued by issues far greater than a single election can resolve. The only policy objective that KTE holds in the United States is the promotion of Hellenic identity and Orthodox religious spirituality within its borders. We are not convinced that a Trump victory necessarily supports or opposes our goals for the Hellenic Diaspora. We urge President-elect Donald Trump to take decisive action regarding the illegal occupation of Cyprus, and we hope the policy of domestic and military support for the Hellenic Republic continues.
