The very good relations that have developed between Greece and the United States have been mentioned by the US Ambassador to Athens, Geoffrey Pyatt.
Pyatt, speaking at the ASTA Athens Destination Expo 2018 conference, noted that “we have come to a very special moment in our bilateral relations. Both sides are committed to building this momentum. But I’m also proud to say that friendship between Greece and the US has never been stronger. ”
In his speech, Mr. Pyatt referred to tourism, stressing that:
“The best part of Greece is the excellent combinations that this country offers: the sea, the mountains, the people, the food and the culture. We all learn from a young age that Greece is the birthplace of Democracy, the cradle of Western civilization, but I can also confirm from the trips I have made to this beautiful country in the last year and a half, whether I refer to the ancient Dodoni or the treasures of Ancient Olympia, that there are dozens and dozens of impressive world heritage sites that have not yet been discovered by American travelers. I have to make clear to my compatriots, the Americans, that Greece is a very safe and welcoming destination.”
