PM Tsipras meets with charming ex-Danish PM Thorning-Schmidt (photos)

Her selfies with Obama had grabbed global media attention

Newsroom July 14 12:16

Greek PM Alexis Tsipras took some time off from his heavy schedule of meetings with multiple officials over the Siemens trial cases and met with the beautiful former Danish PM Helle Thorning-Schmidt at Maximos Hall, Thursday. The charming blonde Danish politician met with the Greek PM is her capacity as CEO of NGO Save the Children, with Migration Minister John Mouzalas also present. Their meeting focussed on the refuge crisis and the ordeal of the unaccompanied refugee children. The 49-year old woman had caused some controversy during Nelson Mandela’s funeral in 2013, when she took selfies with US President Barack Obama, something first lady Michelle clearly disapproved of. The blonde politicians also made quite an impression on other world leaders like former UK PM David Cameron and former French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
