President Barack Obama has arrived in Greece on the first stop of his final foreign tour as president.
Air Force One touched down mid morning in Athens after an overnight flight from Washington, ABC News said on Tuesday.
On his first day in Greece, Obama will meet with President Prokopis Pavlopoulos and Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, plus hold a news conference with Tsipras.
On Wednesday, he'll tour the Acropolis and give a major speech about democracy and globalization before he flies on to Berlin.
From Germany, Obama will travel to Peru for an Asian economic summit before returning to Washington on Saturday.
Obama's trip will be dominated by questions and concerns about President-elect Donald Trump. Obama is working to reassure foreign leaders the U.S. won't abandon its partnerships and alliance obligations despite Trump's tough campaign rhetoric.
