Sending military equipment to the islands is against the treaties. We are warning Greece, if you do this, there will be consequences, Kalin said.
Ankara is launching new threats to the islands, repeating the narrative of militarization from the Greek side.
The representative of the Turkish presidency took over today Ibrahim Kalinas SKAI correspondent Manolis Kostidis broadcasts from Istanbul.
Speaking to A Haber television, Kalin said: “We have always been in favor of dialogue and good relations.
It was the Greek side that led to the failure of the negotiations. Communicating with borrowed power is a strategic mistake.
Sending military equipment to the islands is against the treaties. We are warning Greece, if you do this, there will be consequences.
There is no chance of her gaining power on her own. It can only do this by relying on lobbying in either the EU or the US.”
Yesterday, the representative of his party Erdogan, Omer Celik, launched new threats against the Greek islands, while he also spoke in derogatory language both for the leader of GEETHA, Konstantinos Floros, and for Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
Celik stated that “Mitsotakis and Floros are like prefects of foreign countries” and that “the Greek opposition blames the Mitsotakis government for the presence of foreign forces”.
“The fact that Greece has such a chief of staff, makes such childish statements and speaks with adolescent psychology should worry Greece. The militarization of the demilitarized islands is contrary to the treaties. Here, Greece is violating the treaties.
Some people go and barbecue on those islands. By doing something else, he is making statements against Turkey. Children’s behaviors. But on the other hand, the Greek opposition says that ‘you have turned the whole of Greece into a military base for other states’. Officially, it is as if the Mitsotakis government came to ‘privatize’ Greece. He keeps talking like a prefect of other countries. And the leader of Greece’s GEETHA speaks like a provincial commissioner of these countries”.
Celik continued with the well-known threats “demilitarize the islands otherwise we will come suddenly one night“, while he also says: “Either you will accept our terms or diplomacy ends”.
“If they stop harassing Turkish aircraft, and if they stop militarizing the demilitarized islands and stay away from their illegal approach to turn the Aegean into a Greek lake, a significant part of the tension will have already been defused. But if you have an aggressive attitude towards us, if you try to show aggression, then the software changes. The software will be activated ‘we can come suddenly overnight’.
Turkish media are considering war scenarios
Taking over from the politicians, Turkish journalists reported that “we can do a military operation in Chios and other militarized islands” and that the slogan “we will come suddenly one night” means that Turkey can intervene in the islands.
Journalist Ozai Sentir said: “If the channels of dialogue are closed, then your intervention there will be considered a right of legitimate self-defense. Well, Greece has ‘weapons’ in its hand for the motorized brigade located in Chios as well as for the other militarized islands”.
CNN Turk anchor Gjonsu Ongoren Özgyur said: “So we’re going to intervene in Chios? This is usually what our guests who have a career in the military tell us.”
Sentir replied: “When you do bra de fer that’s how it is. After all, the slogan ‘we will come suddenly one night’ means that ‘I will come one night to your islands which violate the conditions and I will make them go along with the conditions’.
