The following is a quote from AP news article 09/18/01:
" GREECE: Pledged its full support to American and European Union actions to combat terrorism. Greece plays host to a large U.S. Navy (news - web sites) base on the island of Crete. Ministers and officials have also begun re-evaluating security measures for the 2004 Olympics, to be held in Athens. "

: I was wondering if Greece has officially made any statement of sympathy, concern for the U.S. citizens, or offered to help in these recent tragic events? I have watched the news and read all the newspapers, and seen plenty of support from other countries.
: My friend in Greece called to see if I and my family were safe in New York and this was most appreciated!
