The Embassy of Greece in Ireland is the diplomatic mission of Greece in Ireland. It is located in the capital of Ireland, Dublin.
Greece established diplomatic relations with Ireland in 1975, and opened its embassy in Dublin in 1977. [1]
The Greek embassy is located within Dublin's Georgian core on Pembroke Road, close to Fitzwilliam Square, one of Dublin's Georgian Garden squares.
The embassy is situated in a four-storey over basement terraced-townhouse, which was built c. 1825, and retains its original redbrick façade. [2]
Georgia's location, nestled between the Black Sea, Russia, and Turkey, renders it strategically important. It is developing as the gateway from the Black Sea to the Caucasus and the larger Caspian region, but also serves as a buffer between Russia and Turkey. Georgia has a long and tumultuous relationship with Russia, but it is reaching out to its other neighbours and looking to the West in search of alternatives and opportunities. It signed a partnership and cooperation agreement with the European Union, participates in the Partnership for Peace, and encourages foreign investment. France, Germany, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States all have embassies in Tbilisi. Georgia in 2004-2008 sought to become a member of NATO, but did not succeed in the face of strong Russian opposition.
The foreign relations of Ireland are substantially influenced by its membership of the European Union, although bilateral relations with the United States and United Kingdom are also important to the state. It is one of the group of smaller nations in the EU and has traditionally followed a non-aligned foreign policy. Ireland has historically tended towards independence in foreign military policy, thus it is not a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and has a longstanding policy of military neutrality.
Ireland–Japan relations are the bilateral relations between Ireland and Japan. Both nations are members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
