Mr. Syrigos emphasized that our country does not wait, but moves based on the duality of strong Armed Forces, strong alliances. “Only one of the two is not enough for you,” emphasized the professor.
“Turkey does not want to be the one to fire the first bullet. He wants to push us to make this move. He wants to set up scenes that he can charge in Greece”, said Mr Angel Syrigosprofessor of International Law and Deputy Minister of Education speaking about the Turkish provocation on SKAI TV and the “Today” show.
He even recalled the 20-year-old Turkish “Sledgehammer” plan to overthrow Erdogan, which began with the downing of an aircraft in the Aegean, for which the Turkish side would accuse Greece of shooting it down.
Mr. Syrigos emphasized that our country does not wait, but moves based on doubly strong Armed Forces, strong alliances. “Only one of the two is not enough for you,” emphasized the professor.
Regarding the messages sent yesterday during the Mitsotakis-Macron meeting, the professor explained that the Prime Minister’s call to Ankara to “come to the light” concerns International Law, because in the light one understands who is right and who is wrong.
He also said that the message from France is that Athens and Paris will not accept destabilization in the Eastern Mediterranean.
“When the other person calculates his moves and throws something rhetorically, he wants to gauge the reactions. Well, he’s measuring the reactions now and he sees that they’re extremely negative. It’s not the bland, the rounded, the “we support you” and “it’s good to talk about it”. It’s clean. We will not allow destabilization the defense cooperation clause will be triggered,” noted the professor.
In any case, he emphasized that France will be on Greece’s side in the event of an attack, however Athens’ position is that “we must be ready ourselves to face whatever happens”.
