Most of Greece is still very different from balkans, even though similarities also exist. This doesn't mean that either we are balkans or we are not part of the West.
Also, being western was a procedure much older than cold war, Greece had already a more Mediterranean and more extrovert identity than balkans, which tended to be more eastern euro. And if I have to compare any balkan country I would say montenegro, not countries with zero Mediterranean influence like Bulgaria, which I visit very often, but still can't see many in common
Now pls no more off-topic
