World leaders are preparing for the upcoming NATO summit in Ankara, which is poised to address significant defense cooperation issues amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty. The meeting, scheduled for July 11, has garnered attention particularly from Greece, where concerns are rising regarding potential enhanced military support that the United States may offer Turkey under President Trump.
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan have an open possibility of meeting during the summit. However, reports indicate that such a one-on-one encounter is not yet confirmed and may not be particularly likely. Officials in Athens remain vigilant, concerned about the implications of new military commitments to Turkey on Greek-Turkish relations.
As the summit approaches, the Greek government is closely monitoring NATO's agenda and the dynamics surrounding the bilateral talks. With over four months until U.S. midterm elections, the timing of these diplomatic exchanges is deemed critical, and both sides appear to be preparing for various scenarios that could arise during the discussions in Turkey.
