So I guess this tips it perhaps in favor of Kobo.
The Kobo might be ok, but I suggest getting confirmation that it displays Greek. It might require the appropriate font be embedded in the ePub.

The Kindle includes support for the Greek language, but perhaps what the publisher means is that they don't provide MOBI ebooks. Calibre can convert DRM-free ePub to MOBI. The MOBI won't have embedded fonts (which are not supported) but the standard fonts include Greek glyphs.
