Welcome to the website of the Embassy of Greece in Washington, DC.  Here, you will find extensive information on the activities of the Embassy and services of the Greek Consular Missions throughout the United States. You can also be informed on the progress of Greek-American relations, learn about Greece itself, its politics, economy, history and culture.

Our mission is to build on the longstanding cooperation between Greece and the United States and further enhance the bonds of friendship between our two peoples. In this era of considerable changes, challenges and even threats, but also of many and great opportunities, Greece and the United States can work together for the steady enhancement of our strategic partnership.  

We also attach great importance to shedding light on the many and multi-faceted contributions modern Greece can make in confronting global challenges that affect all of us.

In our joint endeavors, we are blessed to be able to count on yet another solid bridge of friendship, that is, the prosperous and enterprising Greek-American Community, whose members embody, better than anyone else, the unfaltering foundation of the relationship between Greece and the United States.

Please, consider this website yours. Feel free to make comments, suggestions and recommendations. We look forward to your proposals as to how improve the site. We will do our best to accommodate them.  Most importantly, we will do our best to maintain a level of constructive interaction, which, we hope, will prove mutually beneficial.

Sincerely,

Vassilis Kaskarelis

Ambassador
