Turkish Press: Reports on the naval base of Crete and the defense equipment of Greece – Plan B for fighters

For another day, the Greek-Turkish ones occupy a large part of the Turkish press, while the dominant issue on the current agenda is the expansion of the naval base in Crete.

At the same time, the pro-government “Milliet” claims that there is a plan B of Turkey regarding fighter jets. In particular, he stresses that as long as the US does not give it F-16s, Ankara intends to turn to some used Eurofighters.

Milliet: Ankara Plan B – What will Ankara do if it is not given permission to buy the F16s?

“Turkey is taking steps to maintain its supremacy in the Aegean because it knows it cannot trust Washington. Buying from Macron can not even be imagined, he will turn his no into a show, while buying from Russians is not an option ”

“Plan B is the market from Britain. Until the domestic fighter jet is completed, Turkey can get two used Eurofighters from Britain. Its characteristics are similar to the Rafale that Athens took from France. Many countries in the world preferred them. “Rafale is land air, Eurofighter is air air.”
