Austria–Greece relations
Austrian-Greek relations are foreign relations between Austria and Greece. Both countries have diplomatic relations since the early 19th century, after the Greek War of Independence, and today's relations are considered excellent.
Since the 17th century, Greek merchants, mostly of the regions of Macedonia and Epirus, were settled in Austria-Hungary and Vienna and made fortunes there. A large part of scholars and intellectuals of the Modern Greek Enlightenment had their base in Wien.
Today Greece has an embassy in Vienna and an honorary consulate in Salzburg. Austria has an embassy in Athens and six honorary consulates. Both countries are full members of the European Union. There is also a Greek community living in Austria.
In 2016, the Greek government summoned the Austrian ambassador to Athens and filed a protest over its decision to call a meeting of Balkan states on the European migrant crisis without including Greece, calling it a “non-friendly action”.
During the Greek debt crisis, Austria was one of the strongest supporters of Greek positions, such as on the refugee crisis.Diplomacy
