The Ambassador

Message of the Ambassador

Dear friends,
Welcome to the website of the Embassy of Greece in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Here you can find information about our bilateral relations, as well as about the services offered by the Consular Section of the Embassy. You can follow the Embassy’s news from our twitter  account.

Our excellent bilateral relations have deep roots in history. Since the late 1940s, when the Saudi oil industry was growing rapidly, broad synergies between Greek and Saudi businesses were built, especially in the shipping and the construction sectors.

Greece considers Saudi Arabia as one of its most important partners in the Arab and in the Muslim world. Our bilateral political, economic, defense and cultural cooperation is widely beneficial to both our people

Today, a considerable number of Greek citizens work in Saudi Arabia, building another bridge between two friendly people

My colleagues and myself strive to further strengthen and broaden our bilateral relations, as well as to support the Greek citizens living and working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Alexis Konstantopoulos
Ambassador of the Hellenic Republic to Saudi Arabia, Oman and Yemen
