by

Greece’s international alliances seem to anger the Turkish President, who once again attacked our country, but also powerful allies, such as France and Germany, whom he accused of becoming instruments of Greek and Greek Cypriot propaganda.

The hourglass of the year is emptying, for the 9th of August, the day when the Turkish driller Abdulhamit Khan will attempt exit from the port of Tasukoufor drilling in the Mediterranean.

The best ones scenarios for the course of “Amdulhamit Khan” there are two: One concerns you investigations in a plot of land north of the Occupied between Cyprus and Turkey, for which permission has been illegally granted for investigations and the second to operate within the continental shelf of Cyprusnear some of the plots that have been auctioned by the Republic of Cyprus.

On her side, Greece responds through diplomacy and internationalizes the issue of Turkish revisionism with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nikos Dendia, recalling with his post the demarcation of the EEZ with Egypt, exactly 2 years ago

“Two years since the signing of the EEZ Delimitation Agreement with our friend Egypt. We protect national interests. With respect to International Law and the International Law of the Sea”, said Mr. Dendias.

In the meantime, Greece’s international alliances seem to anger the Turkish President, who once again attacked our country, but also powerful allies, such as France and Germany, whom he accused of becoming instruments of Greek and Greek Cypriot propaganda.

“Unfortunately, both Germany and France are becoming the instruments of Greek and Greek Cypriot propaganda. It is unacceptable for them to criticize our country with inaccurate assessments, while turning a blind eye to Greece’s steps that ignore international law,” he said.

It is noted that Erdogan’s statements come immediately after his meeting with Vladimir Putinone of the few leaders who openly support him lately.

However, in any case the our armed forces remain on alert for the possibility that the floating drilling rig attempts to move into an area potential Greek sovereignty
