by

He explained that Turkey’s decision to move the drilling rig inside the Turkish continental shelf shows that for the time being Ankara has “read” the messages correctly, but we should not be complacent.

In the last two years, the facts at the political and diplomatic level have changed qualitatively in favor of Greece, stressed Mr Tasos Chatzivasileiou, internationalist and ND MP to SKAI talking about the Turkish provocation but also about its course Turkish driller Abdul Hamid Khan.

He explained that Turkey’s decision to move the drilling rig within the Turkish continental shelf shows that for now Ankara has “read” the messages correctly.

“This does not mean that we are complacent. But that doesn’t mean it’s all over. On the contrary, nothing is certain and don’t be surprised if Turkey is pressured and changes the course of the drilling rig after three or four days. he pointed out.

Because 2022 is not the same as 2020

Mr. Hatzivasiliou explained that 2022 is not like 2020 for Greece, nor for Turkey. As said by revisionism it has been tested and the West finally understands in a tangible way, what it means in practice. “Unfortunately, this has been demonstrated by Russia’s unacceptable invasion of Ukraine,” write down.

He also added that now the West does not have the same tolerance against leaders like Vladimir Putin and Tayyip Erdogan, which violates democratic rights in Turkey.

At the same time, Greece is not the same either. According to Mr. Hatzivasiliou, our country has successfully internationalized Turkish criminality.

“None of our partners in the West has the alibi of ignorance and on the other hand we have two different features: geopolitical importance for our country increased and we have an energetic diplomacy.”

He also referred to the very strong national defense of Greece, as the armament program is “running” and this is well understood by our neighbors.
