Congress demonstrated its support for Cypriot Greeks by imposing an embargo on arms to Turkey. I vigorously opposed lifting that embargo and supported the many efforts to resolve the conflict between our two NATO allies. Greece and Turkey. over the Cyprus issue and the GreekTurkish dispute in the Aegean Sea. The United States also provided. at my urging. assistance to Greek Cypriot refugees. The close relationship between the United States and Greece is further demonstrated by the successful negotiation of an agreement which accommodates U.S. and Greek interests in the operation of American military bases on Greek territory. By joining NATO and the European Community.
