The response relates to comments by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who said during his visit to Greece on Thursday that the Treaty of Lausanne needs updating.
"As a matter of principle, the United States supports the sovereignty of the countries in the region, including Greece and Turkey," the Department of State spokesperson said.
