History of the U.S embassy and consulates in Thessaloniki

The United States recognized Greece's independence in 1837, establishing diplomatic relations shortly thereafter. This long-standing friendship strengthened significantly through shared democratic values and an alliance during World War II and the Cold War, when the U.S. provided substantial aid. The U.S. Embassy in Athens has served as the primary diplomatic mission for decades, fostering extensive cooperation on security, economic, and cultural issues. The relationship continues to thrive as NATO allies.
