Welcome to the site of the Permanent Mission
of Greece to the United Nations and other International Organizations in
Switzerland
As one of the founding Members of the United
Nations, Greece has been an active participant in intergovernmental fora
for the promotion and enhancement of the United Nations’ purposes and
principles.
The role of our mission is to represent Greece’s national
interests in the United Nations’ system in Geneva as well as in all the
other International Organizations, Non-Governmental Organizations and
relevant stakeholders represented in Geneva, thus contributing to
strengthening international cooperation and mutual understanding in
multilateral negotiations.
Our work extends to a wide range of issues covering the full spectrum of
UN’s primary objectives from promotion and protection of human rights,
refugees’ protection, humanitarian assistance and disarmament to trade
issues, environmental concerns and sustainable development.
By establishing close relationships and communications with the United
Nations and other interrelated international organizations, national
delegations and non-governmental organizations, we strongly reaffirm our
commitment to mutual understanding, consensus building and peaceful
settlement of disputes as a means for promoting international peace and
security in a multilateral environment.
