Ole Joe Biden has finally announced his choice for the next ambassador to Greece; on October 8, the White House said George Tsunis, a Greek-American businessman and prominent Democratic party donor, will be the next US envoy in Athens if, that is, he passes muster during his Senate confirmation hearings. His previous nomination by Barak Obama, for the post of US ambassador to Norway, crushed and burned when George displayed an embarrassing lack of knowledge about the country’s government organization. If Tsunis clears the Senate hurdle will be only the second Greek-American US envoy to Greece after WWII. The recently deceased Michael Sotirchos (1928-2019) was in command of AmEmbassy Athens between 1989 and 1993, a nominee of President Ronald Reagan.
