The Minister of Culture and Sports Lina Mendoni, in the context of her contacts in Sydney, met with the two National Committees of Australia that are working systematically for the return of the Parthenon Sculptures.
He has worked extensively with David Hill and George Vardas, President and Vice President of the Australian Parthenon Association, and with Emmanuel Comino, President of the International Organizing Committee - Australia for the Restitution of the Parthenon Marbles.
Lina Mendoni informed the two Committees extensively about the recent developments, after the important decision of September 29 of UNESCO, regarding the request of Greece for the return of the Sculptures to Greece.
A special discussion took place for the forthcoming meeting of the National Committees around the world, next September in Athens, for the decision to coordinate the Committees in joint actions of pressure on the British side.
Lina Mendoni thanked the Presidents and the members of the Boards of Directors of the two Committees for their continuous support and their tireless efforts for the international promotion of the just request of Greece for the Reunification of the Parthenon Sculptures.
