Greece and Israel maintain a strong strategic and energy-based partnership, driven by shared security interests and a mutual concern over Turkey's regional influence. This relationship, formalized with Greece's recognition of Israel in 1990, includes defense cooperation, economic ties, and participation in the trilateral Greece-Cyprus-Israel framework aimed at regional stability in the Eastern Mediterranean. While Greece's stance has shifted from being pro-Palestinian, the deep economic and security stakes have solidified the partnership, even amidst shifts in political leadership and recent regional challenges.
