The National Security Council of Turkey has concluded the emergency meeting with the main topic of tensions in Greece.

The Security Council, which was convened at the request of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, issued an official statement after the meeting, where it accuses Greece and its allied states of "supporting" the militarization of the islands.

"The circles that encourage Greece to arm the demilitarized islands should come to their senses. The US decision to lift the embargo against the Greek Cypriot administration is against the spirit of the alliance," said the Turkish Security Council's statement.

Present at the meeting were the commander of the Turkish Air Force, General Attila Gulan and the commander of the Navy, Admiral Ercimed Tatlioglu.

There were several photos published in the Turkish media a few days ago, the reason for the increase in tensions between the two countries. The photo allegedly showed military vehicles on the islands near Turkey that, according to bilateral agreements, must remain demilitarized.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon spokesman, Patrick Ryder, today invited Turkey and Greece for dialogue and added that his country has no exercises in the Aegean Sea.

At the press conference, he commented on the note of protest that Ankara sent to Washington regarding the US-made armored vehicles sent by Greece to the Aegean islands.

A reporter asked him for a comment on the note of protest to Greece and the US after armored vehicles were sent to the two islands with non-military status.

Asked if the US has exercises in the area and what the US response is to Turkey's protest, Ryder said there is no information that the US is conducting exercises there.

"In general, Turkey and Greece are two important partners of NATO and we invite them to continue the constructive dialogue to reduce possible tensions", said the American general.

Asked to comment on Ankara's criticism of the US for contributing to tensions, he said that in terms of bilateral relations, Turkey is an extremely important NATO partner.

"We will continue to work closely with NATO partners, including Turkey," Ryder said.

On the other hand, the Turkish leadership has added to the narrative of who is pushing Greece into provocations in the Aegean, taking steps that violate the Lausanne Agreement of 100 years ago. According to Ankara, after France, the US is also behind the Greek acts.
