Greece’s armaments programs and alliances seem to have provoked outrage in Turkey, with officials expressing strong reactions to their every statement.
Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar, speaking in parliament to the budget committee, claimed that some problems are being faced in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean due to the aggressive and expansionist policy of Greece and the Greek Cypriots.
“In the Aegean and in the Eastern Mediterranean we face some problems due to the aggressive and expansionist policy of Greece and the Greek Cypriots. “All the unjust, illegal actions committed by Greece, despite our calls for good faith dialogue, are being answered at the diplomatic level and in the field within the framework of reciprocity,” he said.
He also claimed that “Greece is trying to form an alliance with certain countries by distorting all kinds of data and presenting itself as a victim, disguised as a kid to cover up its illegal and aggressive actions and seeks refuge in the EU and creates an artificial perception of threat. ».
At the same time, he spoke about the refugee, characteristically stating that “Greece carries out inhuman behaviors towards immigrants and against universal and European values. Greece continues to relentlessly repatriate migrants, including women and children, to the Aegean. “Greece does not hesitate to delete images of immigrants it repatriates, to destroy data and to try to hide the illegality.”
Among other things, he referred to the issue of Cyprus, talking about two states and saying that it is a national issue of Turkey.
“Cyprus is our national cause, we are drafting our ‘Cypriot brothers’ today as in the past, in accordance with the terms of guarantee and alliance. “As a result, we are determined and able to protect the rights, interests and interests of both us and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean,” said the Turkish Minister of Defense.
