The relations between the US and Greece are of great importance in terms of the international political structure that emerged after the Second World War. The basis of this importance lies in the strategic advantage of Greece in the US' policy of containment the USSR and then the Russian Federation. This advantage of Greece ensured that it was supported militarily and economically by the US during the Cold War period. Greece maintained this advantage in the post-Cold War period as well. However, Greece has taken steps to show that it has different alternatives when its relations with the US were in tension both in the Cold War period and in the post-Cold War period. This political attitude of Greece triggered the US to take steps in line with the reflex of protecting the alliance relationship. Thus, the US initiated a political loop that could shake the balance of the structure in the way of managing the distribution of talents in favor of Greece. This policy of the US has the potential to disrupt the alliance structure that emerged after the Second World War. In this study, the negative effects of the US-Greece relations on the structure will be analyzed with the focus on the distribution of capabilities of Structural Realism.
