U.S and Greek troops also plan to stage joint exercises in Greece from March as part of security preparations for the Games in August. "NATO will be ready to intervene if a crisis erupts. NATO and NATO members will be on a high state of alert," said Greek Defense Minister Yannos Papandoniou. The government has repeatedly had to allay fears among Greeks, sensitive to outside interference in domestic issues, that foreign security forces would be allowed to operate in the country during the Games. The U.S.-Greek exercises are designed to help security forces tackle potential threats during the Games, including nuclear and chemical attacks, as organizers put final touches on the biggest security blueprint the Olympics have ever seen, Public Order Minister George Floridis said. "In March there will be a common exercise of U.S. and Greek troops. This exercise is being designed and details will be announced at a later stage," he told reporters.
