Summary/Abstract: An interesting segment of the Greek Cause was an idea to create an independent Greek State on the part of the Great Powers. With this object, an international conference was organised between 1830 and 1832. On this conference, a Hungarian diplomat Paul Anton Esterhazy – as a minister plenipotentiary of Austria in London – represented the opinion of the Cabinet in Vienna. During this negotiation process – in favour of Greeks – Esterhazy played a special role. The aim of my study is to make an overview about Esterhazy’s diplomatic mission.
