Greece is one of NATO’s best protective noise. So why

Greece, created immediately, may not immediately think as a protective cover, but the four NATO allies have spent a large part of GDP last year than the Mediterranean.

In addition to the United States, NATO Prices According to him, in recent years, in recent years, in response to Russia’s aggression, they include Poland, Latvia and Estonia.

Greece was a large protective valley that accounts for about 3.1% of the GDP in 2024.

Motivations at the core of Athens are tense and breaking with Turkey in NATO.

There is a “historical cargo” in Greece and Turkey.

The tensions between the two countries compared to several hundred years of war, war, war, more than 1 million people and a strong geographical element associated with many Islands of Greece, and Greece.

“You have a lot of very close the Greek Islands to this Turkish coast, so Turks are relatively easily printed,” Kirkegartard said. “Greece is traditionally not traditionally traditional about these islands … it means that many of these is very expensive because it is very expensive because it is very expensive.”

“Turkish threat” is still relevant, which is currently relevant, senior researcher at George Cogopulos, Eliamee.

“Greece will spend a lot to protect its sovereignty and sovereign right,” he said.

Instability in the Middle East and regions, the Middle East and Turkey, “Muscle Policy”, especially Turkey’s muscular policy, is very important to continue its own defense costs, – explained by cyugopulos.

“Greece has no equivalent, but ready for all scenarios,” he added.

According to Greece, there are cracks, despite the major defense budget of the country, say experts say.

For example, Greece has more funds for reproduction, especially from the Russian-Ukrainian war, President of Volfro Piccoli, President of the Political Risks Counseling on Teneo.

But he said, “Most of these costs have been sent abroad,” he said.

“The country still does not give up and the main task of the domestic defense industry and the main task of promotion can reduce dependence on foreign weapons, creation and support of the indicator production base,” Piccoli said.

Greece’s military opportunities also added to both practical issues and Kirkegarard. Many tanks of many Greek Army are relatively old and employees are not trained to use these vehicles with large formations. The equipment is also spread over the islands of the country.

“So it would be wrong, so in Greece, to balance flat military opportunities, – said Kirkegartard.

Because NATO officials are collected this week, Greece’s defense levels should strengthen the country’s voice among 32 members.

The costs increased Greece’s relationship with the main powers in the United States and France, because pickoli, half-senior, for these peoples delivered military equipment to Athens.

“Defense costs in Greece are also a tool for geopolitical leverage, its permanent and safety guarantee,” added pickoli.

The top of the agenda at the NATO summit is defense expenses, reclaim members, according to their GDP until 5% of GDP. This includes 3.5% on traditional defense and 1.5% of the elements such as infrastructure and cyber safety.

5% jumping is much less than many other peoples for Greece, but even Athens can do it, but offered by Kirkegarard.

“I think that Greece is one of the countries in which it is interested in this new NATO, because I don’t think about NATO’s expenditures depends on Russia’s aggressions, but not, not, but the main military disputes of Greece,” he said.
