Being 'colonial' is part and parcel of being small unfortunately. But Greece not being in NATO would even make it vulnerable to the Turks you alluded to earlier. Foreign policy is very often about making the least bad decision. Maybe that doesn't evoke enthusiasm but it is what it is.
We were NATO members when Turks invaded Cyprus . Hungary is smaller yet they do not have a colonial government ....
Personally i think it would be better if we hosted Russian nukes and have their fleets parked in our ports . Russia is the future while the US are on their way out , too many dividing forces and not enough ethnic consciousness to balance the slide .
