The Israeli Embassy in Athens has welcomed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Greece by slamming him for not approving a budget allowing them to function.
Posting to the Embassy's Facebook page, staff said: "We wish to remind you that the Athens Embassy, like roughly a hundred embassies around the world... have been functioning for a long time without a budget."
"We call upon you, as you promised us a year ago, to intervene and stop the behavior of the Treasury, which is almost abusive," they wrote.
