He explained that Greece’s answer will be clear: “Erdogan can come neither at night nor during the day, because the answer he will get will be very expensive. He is wrong if he thinks that Greece will not respond,” commented Ms. Bakoyannis.
“Turkey is currently in a crescendo of unprecedented threats, I have never heard this kind of rhetoric before, especially from its president,” said Dora Bakoyannis speaking on SKAI television.
He explained that Greece’s answer will be clear: “Erdogan can come neither at night nor during the day, because the answer he will get will be very expensive. He is wrong if he thinks that Greece will not respond,” commented Ms. Bakoyannis.
He noted that Turkey feels insecure from Greece’s new defense armor, as well as diplomatic armor.
Greece is 100% determined, added Mrs. Bakoyannis and underlined that “there is no way that any government will accept any violation of the country’s sovereignty”.
He explained that the Erdogan he wants to send messages, both inside the country and to the Americans.
“Through threats, he wants to blackmail the State Department,” he emphasized and added that Westerners will try to keep Turkey in the West, but it is difficult to trust Erdogan.
Mrs. Bakoyannis added: “I don’t believe that there is any chance that Erdogan will attack. What I fear is the accident, it is a possibility. It’s a breath of fresh air that Erdogan will attack our islands.”
He added that the Turkish president knows that Kyriakos Mitsotakis means what he says, that’s why he doesn’t want him in the government.
He predicted that “we will have a difficult time, because these tensions have a cost. It is a period of great tension, it requires determination, composure and self-confidence.”
Asked if it is easy for Turkey to get the F-16s, she estimated that this can be very difficult.
Asked about the possibility of changing the electoral law, she said that the circumstances require the debate, there is an open debate, which is rightly open.
He added that the lack of stability at the moment is more dangerous than a bad government.
