Congratulations extended to new Euro-Parliament president Metsola by Inter-Parliamentary Assembly of Orthodoxy’s leadership

A letter of congratulations was sent by the general secretary of the Inter-Parliamentary Assembly of Orthodoxy, Greek Parliament Deputy Maximos Harakopoulos, and the assembly’s president, Russian Duma lawmaker Sergey Gavrilov, to newly elected European Parliament President Roberta Metsola.
In the letter, the two lawmakers note, among others, that “we believe you also share our vision for a Europe, which respects and protects the individual identities of its nations, on the one hand, and at the same time promotes a common European identity, one based on the foundations and values of our common European civilization, namely, ancient Greek learning, Roman law and Christianity.”
