Her crescendo of aggressive statements continues Turkeyafter a strong message sent yesterday from Paris to Ankara, during the meeting Kyriakou Mitsotakis on Emmanuel Macron.

Them Hulusi Akar’s statementsearlier, and then the position of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Turkey, Mevlut Cavusogluwho repeatedly threatened Aegean islandsdescribed Greece as “an instrument of others” and noted that Turkey will do everything to protect its interests, urging our country not to provoke it.

“We are doing everything to protect our rights and interests in the Eastern Mediterranean, on our continental shelf and in the Aegean Sea. After defining the boundaries of our continental shelf, we have not allowed any ship to enter our continental shelf,” he said, initially accusing Greece of dishonest treatment.

“For 2 weeks, Turkey has been criticized all over the world, especially from the US Congress, an ally, a NATO ally, “don’t give them F-16s” … Their hostile policy towards us has intensified even more. They cannot be trusted. They are not honest. When they see you, they immediately hug you, we are friends, we are friends, we are neighbors. Come inside immediately for a formal meeting. At the first sentence, before anyone speaks, they stand up and slander Turkey. We have seen their dishonesty at every table, at every meeting, at every turn. They also know how to pass off the most unfair situation as the most correct one. But when we, like Turkey, began to tell the whole world about the violation of the technology of the demilitarized islands in a letter that we wrote to the UN, as well as about Turkey’s fair position on other issues, this time we raised a fuss.

“Turkey is eyeing our territory. This is starting to encroach on our sovereignty.” The deals are clear. You can’t militarize these islands, bro. When you militarize them, you violate the agreement given under this condition. Speak to me in the language of the law. Do not go and slander right and left, do not lie, do not become an instrument of others. But Greece becomes an instrument of others. He is constantly trying to challenge us. And we remind them. You have challenged us in the past. You got your answer and the price was high.”

“The islands are occupied, do what Ecevit did in Cyprus”

At the same time, the chairman of the Republican People’s Party Kemal Kilintzaroglu urged Erdogan to invade the Greek islands following the example of Cyprus.

“In Cyprus, you will go to Pentadachtilos to see our patriotism. We are not like them, saying “I will come”, “I will come now”, or “I can come in the morning”. What Ecevit said, the soldier went, disembarked, went to the door of the prime minister’s office and said that “our army is now in Cyprus” and it’s all over. Why do you want them to send you an invitation? If you have soul, if you have courage, go my brother. We have nothing to do with lies. This is not how the government is run.”

Challenges of Acarus and response of Athens

Previously, a full-scale attack on Greece was undertaken Hulusi Akar. “They are trying to tarnish Turkey’s image. They try to use and distort every event, influence third parties with lies and slander, and complain about Turkey in third countries,” he said in his statements.

Government spokesman responded to provocative statements by Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar Yannis Oikonomou, who spoke of “rhetorical frenzy” on the part of Ankara. He stressed that Akar’s statements are based on extremes, lies and distortions of history, international legitimacy, treaties and the reality that exists in the Aegean.

He also sent a message to Ankara that “the monotonous repetition of a lie does not make it true,” which the entire international community realized.
