Greek-Turkish relations

Greek-Turkish relations are shaped by a complex history, including disputes over territory, the status of Cyprus, and varying national identities. Tensions sometimes flare over issues like airspace and maritime rights in the Aegean Sea. Both countries are NATO members, which adds a layer of strategic interest but does not eliminate conflicts. Over the years, there have been efforts for diplomacy and dialogue, but historical grievances and national sentiments often overshadow cooperation. Despite challenges, both nations share cultural ties and a desire for stability in the region. Diplomatic efforts continue to seek resolutions to their differences.
