Regarding the open intervention of the Turkish president in the internal political issues of Greece, the general commented that it is an indication that he is very disturbed by the Greek attitude, as Athens moves with determination, composure and stability.

Turkey’s targeting at a strategic level is the same, consistent and tough, at the other levels there are tactics, emphasized the honorary head of GES, Alcibiades Stefanis, speaking on SKAI TV and the “Today” show.

He estimated that Tayyip Erdoğan’s choice not to put his revisionist demands before the NATO leaders was because he “correctly estimated that if he did, he would lose miserably.” He added that at a critical moment for the Alliance, which was deciding its next strategic doctrine for the next decade, describing Russia as a clear threat, Erdogan was “using an internal issue of his own” to achieve his goals.

Regarding the equipment program of Greece, he emphasized that in the last three years there have been holistic upgrading efforts at all levels: organizational, operational, human resources.

According to Mr. Stefanis, the equipment that has already been deployed in the Aegean, in the air and at sea, bring a great advantage to our country, while when this plan is completed, with the upgrade of the F-16s and the entry into the era of F -35, “then the landscape will be completely different”.

When asked if he is worried about tension with Turkey, he replied that a country like ours is not afraid of anything, because it has knowledge, experience, knows how to handle every situation and the word “fear” is out of the vocabulary.
