Greece and Russia marked on Monday 190 years of diplomatic ties. A tweet sent by the Russian embassy in Athens noted that “A new day has dawned. Today is the big anniversary of 190 years from the establishment of diplomatic ties between Russia and Greece.” It went to wish prosperity and new common plans for the two countries in the future.
Celebrating the occasion of the 190 year annniversary, Russian ambassador to Athens Andrey Maslov and Poros Mayor Ioannis Dimitriadis lay a wreath at the home of the first governor of Greece Ioannis Kapodistrias on the Greek island. It was here on September 17, 1828 that Russian delegate Mark Boulgary handed in his accreditations.
