New Secretary of State will strive to enhnace US-Greek security ties

U.S. President Joe Biden's nominee for Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has said he wants to work toward further deepen security ties between the United States and Greece. Responding to a written question from Senator Robert Menendez, the nominee described the US-Greece relationship as important for Washington's interests in the Eastern Mediterranean and spoke positively about US participation in the Greece-Cyprus-Israel trilateral scheme (3 + 1), according to ANA. Blinken's reply: If my appointment is ratified, I look forward to further reviewing this legislation and working with Congress and colleagues in all services to support strong ties between the United States, Greece, Israel, and Cyprus. US-Greek security relations are important to our interests in the Eastern Mediterranean and has grown significantly as bilateral ties have improved since the Obama-Biden administration. If my appointment is ratified, I will work to continue to deepen ties between the United States and Greece, as well as Cyprus.
