The government's concession of Pnyx to the U.S. Secretary of State, Rubio, is, according to Grigoris Kalfellis, an unfortunate choice, as it symbolizes the ancient Greek ideal of democracy and contradicts the current authoritarian administration of the United States. #Πνύκα #Δημοκρατία #ΗΠΑ (translated)

Andreas Papaellinas wrote that every time he spoke to someone, Emily was reflecting on what people would be without the exceptional and unparalleled struggle of EOKA and the Greek spirit of the children who gave it.

Nikos Appelaios II accused a woman of returning with "fake patriotism" and accused her of distorting her statements. He wrote that she had expressed dissatisfaction with the National Anthem of the Greeks and had called for the liberation of Cyprus from all foreign powers, naming Turkey and Greece. According to him, she had also questioned the interest of Turkey, Greece, and the guarantor powers in Cyprus and had requested that propaganda for Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots be removed from school textbooks. Appelaios claimed that her positions referred to Turkish positions and did not defend history and national rights. He criticized her for speaking about the Bizonal Bicommunal Federation and the heroes of EOKA, while, as he wrote, she had insulted their struggle and memory. He called her disrespectful, ungrateful, historically ignorant, and shameless. #Ελλάδα #Κύπρος #Πατριωτισμός (translated)

P.G. Papanikolaou sarcastically addressed Adonis Georgiadis, whom he called "the chancellor of history" and an ultra-patriot. He wrote that the most shocking speech delivered at the Pnyx in recent centuries was that of Theodoros Kolokotronis in 1838, when, as he stated, the revolutionaries decided to start the Revolution of 1821 without considering how many they were or if they had weapons. He then compared the critics of the time to local figures who, he claimed, supported submission to the sultan and described the Friendly Society as a terrorist organization, Kolokotronis as a Russian spy, Papaflessas as a heretical adventurer, and Georgios Karaiskakis with derogatory remarks about his origins. He referred to Karaiskakis as a figure of revolutions and said that he had issued a crudely worded threat to the "Pasha Rubius" and the corresponding politicians of various eras regarding his return. #Επανάσταση1821 #Ιστορία #Κολοκοτρώνης (translated)

Leonidas Palaiodimos wrote that M. Rubio did not go to the Pnyx to thank the Greeks for Democracy, but to present an ideological manifesto. According to him, Rubio highlighted patriotism, ambition, rivalry, courage, and desire for the unknown, placing particular emphasis on what he called "anger." Palaiodimos noted that during the speech, these virtues were connected to the journey from Athens and Rome to Christian Europe and western dominance. He added that Rubio warned about the guilt towards history, homeland, and nation, as well as about policies that prevented losses, international bureaucracy, deindustrialization, mass immigration, weakening of defense, and cession of sovereignty. As Rubio's proposal, Palaiodimos described the return to a nation that was not ashamed of its power and collaborated without ceding its sovereignty. He estimated that Rubio spoke as a representative of a hegemonic state and presented the manifesto of the then American government. He also added that he believed his words were liked by the Greeks, while he stated he was unsure of the reaction of the "so-called elites." #Δημοκρατία #Πατρίδα #Ιστορία (translated)

He wrote that he would have to prove in court that the singer, who originally performed them, no longer respected them, distorted their meaning, or questioned their authorship.
