An article in Hurriet talks about bypassing Ankara, since the US can get the military aid it needs without Turkey, through the port of Alexandroupoli.
An attempt by the US to bypass Turkey through the port of Alexandroupolis is seen in Ankara, an interpretation that causes concern in the leadership of the neighboring country
The irritation, as transmitted from Istanbul by the SKAI correspondent, Manolis Kostidisis also reflected in a central article in the pro-government Hurriyet by the authoritative political analyst, Sedat Ergin, who expresses the anxiety prevailing in Turkey about an alliance between Washington and Athens aimed at Turkey.
The article talks about bypassing Turkey, since the US can get the military aid it needs without Ankara, through the port of Alexandroupoli.
Ergin writes that “the Mitsotakis government in Greece gave the US a ‘blank cheque’ for the military capabilities it requested or could have once it took office.”
And he continues: “The US also took advantage of this opportunity and gained extremely wide freedom of action from a military point of view in the Eastern Mediterranean and southeastern Europe.
The Mitsotakis government, of course, turns this blank check into profits in many areas.
The fact that Greece ordered the first batch of 20 F-35 aircraft without any problems from the US, while the modernization of 83 F-16 aircraft in the inventory of the Hellenic Air Force began, can be given as an example of developments in the military field.
Alexandroupoli has become the main terminal of US military strategy, providing its exit to Eastern Europe, the Balkans and the Black Sea.
The US seeks the military capabilities that it cannot provide through Turkey, to compensate for them through Alexandroupoli in Greece”.
