Dear John, Jake and Huma:

Greetings from Spetses, a small island in Greece's Argo-Saronic gulf (not far from Leonidio). I wanted to make sure you saw the article that Admiral Jim Stavrides published last week about the repercussions of a possible Grexit. Although things are moving quickly here, Jim's article is still very poignant, and like him, I agree that it is extremely important that the EU and Tsipras come to terms that will allow Greece to stay in the Eurozone.

I also wanted to let you know that the Washington Post review of "Madam Ambassador" has spurred more reviews, concentrating on US engagement with Hungary and Viktor Orban. Freedom House just posted this in-depth review:

I plan to be in Greece until next month. But also wanted to check in about the process for setting up advisory teams. Is there any news?

All best, Eleni
