This bill, known as the U.S.-Greece Defense Cooperation Advancement Act , authorizes the President to provide International Military Education and Training (IMET) assistance to Greece. The primary goal of this assistance is to strengthen defense cooperation and enhance the capabilities of the Greek military. Specifically, the aid is intended to train future leaders, foster a better understanding of the United States, and establish stronger rapport between the U.S. and Greek Armed Forces. It also aims to improve interoperability for joint operations, focusing on professional military education, civilian control of the military, and the protection of human rights. To fund these initiatives, the bill authorizes an appropriation of $1,800,000 annually for each of fiscal years 2027 through 2031.
