Pyatt referred to what Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis had said during his visit to the White House in January, when he told President Trump that he wanted "to see the US-Greece trade and investment relationship rise to the same high level as our defense and security cooperation." The ambassador also underlined that "the United States shares that goal."

The American diplomat also praised the work carried out so far by the Greek Ministry of Digital Governance and Minister Kyriakos Pierrakakis, saying that his team "have made tremendous progress in digitizing government processes during the pandemic."
