In a hostile delusion against Greece, the Turkish Minister of Defense proceeded. Hulusi Akar said that even a student of the Turkish military academy could go swimming in Kastelorizo, while describing the armament program of Greece as a “show”.
In his speech at the Turkish military academy, he mainly targeted Kastelorizo, saying that he is not entitled to such a large maritime zone of responsibility as Greece claims.
“At a distance of 1950 meters is Kastellorizo. 1950 meters! A student of the military academy can get there by swimming. For us, normal swimming is 2000 meters in the academy. We are talking about an island of 10 square kilometers. For this island they claim a sea area of responsibility of 40,000 sq.m. They claim … When we say no to this they characterize us as “expansive”. “We are waiting for them to understand that with such actions and such rhetoric they will not get anywhere.”
Speaking about Greece’s armaments program, he said that Greece is demonstrating equipment as it tries to gain supremacy over Turkey.
“With some demonstrations of equipment, because what they are doing is not an arms race but a demonstration of equipment, they are trying to gain an advantage over Turkey, but we emphasize that this is a futile effort. Also, while we are in NATO, they are trying to do some things with new alliances. “These are artificial things.”
Finally, he once again blamed Greece’s alliances with other countries.
