Dive into the journey of Greek-American relations, exploring how the partnership evolved from scepticism to what is now celebrated as the “best relations ever.” In this inaugural episode of The Greek-American Dialogues, we are honored to host two distinguished guests who illuminate this transformation from unique perspectives.

In part one, Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt, Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources and former U.S. Ambassador to Greece, reflects on the domestic, regional, and international factors that propelled this relationship to new heights. His insights shed light on the evolving U.S. image in Greece and Greece’s growing stature in Washington policymaking circles.

In part two, Professor Aris Tziampiris, President of the Department of International and European Studies at the University of Piraeus, offers a historical lens, drawing connections between the Monroe Doctrine and the Greek Revolution to today’s flourishing partnership.

Join us as we explore the personal, political, and historical influences that have shaped Greek-American ties, highlighting key milestones and assessing what this means for the future of the transatlantic partnership.

Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that celebrates the importance of dialogue, understanding, and shared values in navigating global challenges
