In his meeting with the German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Hanover on the 23rd of April, US President Barack Obama will express his support for Greece in relation to the financial and refugees crises.

Mega Channel correspondent Michalis Ignatiou reported that the White House’s Senior Director for European Affairs Charles Kupchan informed journalists that the American President will argue that the relief is necessary to make the Greek debt sustainable.

In relation to the refugee crisis, Mr. Kupchan noted that the US government is seeking to work with Greece separately, as it estimates that Greece is bearing an excessive burden in the management and accommodation of refugees.

NATO’s involvement in the Aegean Sea, will also be on the agenda, in order to ensure that the agreement with Turkey is effective. The US President intends to discuss solution for the refugee crisis on a broader scale.
