At the dinner the two men had, both the US election and the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East were discussed.
According to SKAI, the two politicians have developed a “friendly relationship” since Pompeo’s tenure as Secretary of State in the then Trump administration.
It is worth noting that Pompeo has also made a very big change in his appearance as he has gotten rid of the extra pounds he had, with the SKAI correspondent saying that for this reason the lunch of the two politicians was relatively modest.
Mike Pompeo, who previously served as Secretary of State in the Trump administration, is one of the favorites for the position of US Secretary of Defense, in the event of Donald’s election, according to what the former US president himself said in his speech.
Supports… Greece
In particular, Trump has said that he has already created a list of potential candidates for the post of defense secretary if he wins the November election. Among the candidates are Senator Tom Cotton, Congressman Mike Waltz and Mike Pompeo, who SKAI reported could also be appointed to the post of National Security Adviser in the White House.
It is recalled that during the time that Mike Pompeo was US Secretary of State, he had expressed his support for Greece and the Greek positions several times in opposition to the then president, Donald Trump, while since 1976 he is the only American politician who imposed sanctions on Turkey.

**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us today, Dr. Papadopoulos. We’re discussing the recent secret meeting between Republican MP Mike Pompeo and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. What can you tell us about the significance of this visit, especially given the context of the upcoming U.S. elections?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** Thank you for having me. This visit is quite timely. As we know, Mike Pompeo has a significant role in the Republican Party and the discussions he had with Prime Minister Mitsotakis could reflect the party’s strategies as we approach the elections. Their meeting may also highlight the U.S. interest in maintaining strong ties with Greece amidst geopolitical tensions in the region.
**Interviewer:** The topics discussed included the U.S. election and ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. How do you think these issues impact Greece specifically?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** Greece is strategically located and plays a pivotal role in the Eastern Mediterranean. The ongoing conflicts can influence regional stability. Discussions around these wars are essential, given Greece’s alliances and its position in NATO. If Pompeo and Mitsotakis are on the same page regarding their approaches to these conflicts, it could signal stronger support for Greece in facing external pressures.
**Interviewer:** The report mentions a “friendly relationship” between Pompeo and Mitsotakis. How important do you think personal relationships are in international politics?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** Personal relationships can be very influential in international diplomacy. They can facilitate more open communication and trust between leaders, which is crucial when dealing with sensitive issues. In this case, their rapport could lead to more robust bilateral cooperation on various fronts, from security to trade.
**Interviewer:** Pompeo’s appearance has reportedly changed significantly. What do you think this signifies?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** Physical appearances can sometimes reflect personal or political transformations. For Pompeo, it could indicate a shift in how he wishes to present himself to the public or the party. Given the competitive nature of U.S. politics, especially for someone potentially eyeing a 2024 presidential run, how he is perceived could play a role in his political future.
**Interviewer:** what should we watch for in the aftermath of this meeting?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** It will be interesting to see if there are any policy announcements or changes in U.S.-Greece relations in the coming weeks. Additionally, the reactions within both countries to this secret meeting could reveal much about political alignments as we head closer to the elections. Keep an eye on both domestic news in Greece and American political commentary for insights into what this meeting may yield.
