The Embassy of Greece in London is the diplomatic mission of Greece in the United Kingdom.[1]
A Greek embassy in London was established shortly after Greek independence in 1828 and was formerly located at 51 Upper Brook Street in Mayfair.[2] In 1975, the embassy moved to its current location, with the Mayfair building remaining as the Greek Ambassador's Residence.[3]
In 1999, Kurdish protesters temporarily occupied the embassy in protest at the role of Greece in the capture of Kurdistan Workers' Party leader Abdullah Öcalan in Kenya.[4]
Greece also maintains a National Tourism Organisation Office at 4 Great Portland Street, W1W 8QJ.[5]
