The Greek National Security Council holds an emergency meeting regarding developments in Iran

Greece's National Security Council will convene today to discuss the recent escalations in Iran following military actions announced by the US and Israel.

In light of recent developments in the Middle East, Greece's National Security Council (KYSYEA) will hold an emergency meeting at the Prime Minister's office today at 18:30. This meeting, led by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, is in response to escalating tensions involving Iran. The urgency of the discussion underscores Greece's concern regarding the stability of the region and its implications for national security.

Earlier today, US President Donald Trump declared that the United States has initiated significant military operations in Iran. This announcement followed a statement from the Israeli Defense Minister, who revealed that Israel had launched a 'preventive' attack against Iran. The coordinated military responses from the US and Israel highlight the increasing volatility in the region, and Greece is closely monitoring the developments considering its geographical proximity and historical ties to the Middle East.

The outcomes of this emergency meeting could influence Greece’s foreign policy stance and its involvement in international discussions regarding the situation in Iran. As tensions rise, Greece is likely to seek a balanced approach that ensures national security while advocating for diplomatic solutions to de-escalate the conflict and protect regional stability.
