All eyes on Greece and the East Med at key forum in DC
Leading experts, analysts, and elected officials put the spotlight on Greece and the region in Washington, DC this week, as HALC, the Delphi Economic Forum, and Kathimerini hosted the 4th Southeast Europe and East Med conference. Endy Zemenides, HALC’s Executive Director, joins Thanos Davelis to look at how this conference has grown over the years to play a key role in setting the agenda on the East Med and look at the message sent by the US foreign policy establishment. We also discuss key news coming out of the conference, including what to expect from the new leadership in the Hellenic caucus and the Congressional Hellenic Israel Alliance, and Senator Menendez’s announcement that he had signed off on the sale of F-35s to Greece.
