Greece’s Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis had a phone conversation with the President of the United States, Joe Biden, on Sunday afternoon.

Biden congratulated Mitsotakis on his electoral victory and emphasised his anticipation for even closer cooperation with the new Greek government.

The two leaders reaffirmed the close bilateral ties between the two countries, as well as their commitment to strengthening and deepening the excellent Greek-American cooperation, particularly in the areas of defence and energy.

During the conversation, the importance of the strategic cooperation between Greece and the United States for stability and security in the broader Eastern Mediterranean region was highlighted.

Biden also expressed his gratitude for the support provided by Greece to Ukraine from the very beginning and for its role as a reliable partner and ally in the region.
