Flurry of overflights after Menendez

It is noted that just yesterday, from dawn to noon, Turkish fighter jets and UAVs made eight overflights of five inhabited islands – Agafonisi, Farmakonisi, Kinaro, Leipsos and Arkiou.

The flurry of Turkish overflights comes less than 24 hours after Senator Bob Menendez, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, publicly announced that he would not allow the sale of American F-16s to Turkey unless the Turkish Air Force stopped the practice of overflights.

This is a clear signal from Ankara, which was also clearly sent, that it will not accept conditions in the implementation of its foreign policy, even through an arms contract. The overflights also came after a flurry of complaints about alleged harassment of NATO exercises by Greek fighters.
