'''Konstantinos Mousouros''' was an Ottoman diplomat of the [[19th century]].

Mousouros was born in [[1807]], in [[Constantinople]], of Greek descent. He served the High Porte as Ambassador to [[Athens]], Vienna, London and Turin.

While in [[Athens]], Mousouros denied a visa to [[Tsamis Karatasos]] - who was [[King Otto]]'s bodyguard - on account of his revolutionary activity in Ottoman-held [[Macedonia]]. On that account, on [[January 28]], [[1847]], at an official function, he was insulted by the Greek King. The insult provoked the "Mousouros Events" - a break in the diplomatic relations between Greece and the High Porte that lasted until February of [[1848]]. Two months after relations were restored and Mousouros resumed his post, he became the target of an assassination attempt which led to further strains in the Greco-Turkish relations.

Mousouros died in [[1890]].
