How Greece is reshaping the Eastern Mediterranean

Professor Aristotle Tziampiris joins us on The Greek Current today to explore his latest piece in World Politics Review, in which he outlines how Greece is reshaping the Eastern Mediterranean. We look at how Greece’s foreign policy establishment views the broader region, and how this has led it to pursue a national strategy with four pillars, including close relations with Israel, a deepening military and political relationship with the US, and energy projects. 

Dr. Aristotle Tziampiris is president of the Council for International Relations-Greece, and a professor of international relations at the University of Piraeus.
