Following a series of technical meetings between Greek and Turkish military officials at NATO headquarters in Brussels on October 1, a bilateral military conflict resolution mechanism was established.

The mechanism is designed to reduce the risk of incidents and accidents in the Eastern Mediterranean. It includes the creation of a hotline between Greece and Turkey to facilitate the resolution of conflicts at sea or in the air, the Alliance said in a statement.

The military-technical talks to resolve the conflict, which began in early September, were initiated by NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg following high-level contacts with Greece and Turkey.kdneq please
