Erdogan intends to highlight the alleged Greek aggression at the 77th UN General Assembly, putting many issues of Greek-Turkish differences on the table. Butter to his bread for highlighting the above, he would give a Turkish provocative action that would expose Greece in the coming days.
It is known that Greek-Turkish relations are going through one of their worst periods in recent times, especially after the Prime Minister’s visit to the USA and the remarks he made to the American leadership and Congress about Turkish aggression against our country, saying that any further provision of equipment by the US, would further fuel Ankara’s extreme behavior against Greece
After that, Erdogan declared that he was cutting off all communication with the Greek Prime Minister, as well as with Greece, making inflammatory statements
We point out that the interruption of communication channels between two countries is always worrying in International relations
Since then, Turkey has been provoking our country on a daily basis with insulting-inflammatory statements by Turkish officials, with the first and best being Erdogan, who said his aggressive “rant” known from Syria and Libya, “we will come one night suddenly”, for to occupy the Aegean islands, whose sovereignty he associates with demilitarization, misinterpreting the Treaty of Lausanne a la turka
The obsessive statements of the Turkish President at the expense of the sovereignty of our islands in the Aegean, were followed by a crescendo of statements by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs-Ministry of Internal Affairs-officials of the AKP party, the gray wolf Bakhceli who co-rules with Erdogan, military officers, analysts and also the media, which have indulged in a daily brainwashing of the Turkish citizen in order to demonstrate the role of the supposed “evil-aggressive Greek”
Now a worrying fact is that the current Turkish opposition has even more extreme positions against Greece than the Turkish President, provoking Erdogan not to make statements against us but actions, “liberating the Aegean islands from the conquering Greeks”!
At the same time, the Turkish challenges in the Aegean are daily, multiple and upgraded, where the Turkish Air Force, assisted by UAVs, violates the EEZ and overflights on our islands-islands-islands in the Aegean
In addition to the above, something extremely worrying is found, it is the existence of an organized Turkish plan to slander our country in NATO-EU-USA and more generally Internationally, in order to make Turkey appear as the victim of the alleged Greek aggression, as we analyzed in our relevant article
The Turkish montage about the alleged “blocking” of the Turkish F-16s by the Greeks in the Aegean has been dragged on by the Turkish media for a long time, in an attempt to show Greece as aggressive towards Turkey, while the Turkish air force has strain our EEC with constant violations and overflights
There followed a new barrage of Turkish articles and announcements from the Turkish side about the alleged “locking” of Turkish F-16s by our S-300s located in Crete and then we had alleged incidents with migrants on an islet in Evros and with a vessel of our Coast Guard east of Lesvos with a fishing boat with a Comoros flag, where our country was again accused of not respecting human life and that our boat opened fire on the fishing boat, endangering the lives of its passengers
Of course, the events did not turn out that way, since the Coast Guard vessel took the appropriate actions, which was to warn the fishing vessel to stop for inspection, since it was sailing within our waters and when it did not obey, then it fired shots in the air and in the opposite direction of the direction of movement of the Comoros-flagged fishing vessel
Finally, when it left our waters and entered Turkish waters, our Coast Guard vessel informed the Turkish authorities.
From the above we can see that Turkey tried to portray Greece as an attacking country against it in air-land-sea.
The Muslim minority in our Thrace took a turn, as we will see later, as a matter of alleged promotion of the aggressive Greece, which Turkey has baptized Turkish in violation of the Treaty of Lausanne, but also the safety of the Muslim member of the Greek Parliament Hossein Zeibek, who with his unacceptable statements he referred to the “Turkish minority of Western Thrace”.
Incendiary statements by the Turkish Foreign Minister followed and a response from our Foreign Minister on the matter, which we analyzed thoroughly in our recent article
Most disturbing in our view is that the Turkish Foreign Ministry has called on authorities in Greece to investigate a death threat against a Greek MP who is also a member of the country’s Muslim Turkish minority.
In an excerpt from today’s interview of the Deputy Minister to the Prime Minister and Government Spokesman, Yannis Oikonomou, on the “Mega” television station, he mentions the Turkish challenges:
We respond with the determination, composure and efficiency that enables us to have, the policy that we have implemented in the past period. The influence of Kyriakos Mitsotakis and the Greek Government on the international stage, the power of Greek diplomacy – because we have on our side International Law, the Treaties, the historical data – the power that the unity of our people gives us in the face of these challenges, the strength that our relationship with our Allies gives us and the strength that gives us in the field to strengthen our deterrence power.
We must be energized and ready to face any challenge. Greece has no reason to be afraid. Greece proves that it is a factor of stability in the region. Cool, decisive and unyielding, we will always face challenges in such a way that we are not blackmailed into painful last-minute dilemmas and leave no room for questioning our national sovereignty and sovereign rights. The importance and significance of a stable, efficient and quick-reflex government, which can give substantial answers where it should and as it should, is highlighted.
The above shows that Erdogan who is already in the US after yesterday’s meeting with Putin, intends to highlight the alleged Greek aggression at the 77th UN General Assembly, putting many issues on the table and that is why we have this organized slander plan of our country in the last period of time, for the alleged occupation and militarization of our islands in the Aegean, our aggression-violent behavior against Turkey on land, sea and air, immigration, Muslim minority, difference in the range of EEC from HY
Buttering Erdogan’s bread for highlighting the above, it would give a Turkish provocative action that would expose Greece in the coming days.
This requires special attention from us this week, especially in Western Thrace and the security of Zeybek, since the Turks are masters at setting up provocative actions and incidents
Turkey is a country that historically has a great tradition and ingenuity in creating provocative actions, which in the past were used as a pretext for actions against Hellenism
One of the leading such actions was the “September 1955”, where the organized pogrom of the night of September 6, 1955, hence the name, took place in Istanbul, when a Turkish-led mob caused violent incidents against the property of Greek expatriates and Armenians, except for Turkish citizens, as well as other non-Muslim minorities, looting and setting fire to Greek shops, houses, schools and desecrating churches and even cemeteries, creating terror and insecurity for the existing minorities.
It gave rise to a bomb attack on Kemal Atatürk’s paternal home in Thessaloniki, which, as it turned out later, was a staged provocation by the Turkish government itself, with the executors being the concierge of the Consulate who planted the bomb and the student Oktay Egin who transported the bomb to Thessaloniki
The “Septembers” were part of a long list of persecutions against non-religious minorities, which began around the end of the Ottoman Empire and intensified from the time of the Young Turks onwards.
We close by pointing out that the report of the Greek-Turkish disputes by Erdogan to the UN is intended to preconceive the International Public Opinion about what the Turks are planning to do to the detriment of Greece, as a result of what they will say that “the glass of Greek challenges has overflowed”. so we take military action,
When this will happen is a combination of several parameters that we analyzed thoroughly in our previous article.
