Ankara threatened Greece with war
An MP from Erdogan’s party posted a Twitter map showing half of Bulgaria as Turkish territory on his personal Instagram profile.
“Erdogan’s ideologue is calling for a Greater Turkey, which includes northern Greece and parts of Bulgaria. This is a provocation for us,” the northern Greek media wrote, cited by 24rodopi.
On the map, published by MP Metin Külünk, large areas of northern Greece, including Halkidiki, almost half of Bulgaria, Cyprus and Armenia, Armenia, Armenia are shown as Turkish territories.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirmed that they have initiated an investigation into the case.
The deputy of the ruling Justice and Development Party accompanies his tweets with provocative nationalist expansionist resorts. “How quickly the painful fate of those who went to Izmir for the interests of imperialism has been forgotten!” The deputy wrote on Twitter at a time when
Athens announced

Kyulyunk even goes so far as to ask Greeks to remember the good times when “brothers” lived with the Turks in the Ottoman Empire, the Ottoman leader said.

A possible decision by Greece to expand its territorial waters into the Aegean Sea would be considered a pretext for war, Turkey’s Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu warned meanwhile.

Foreign Minister Nicolas Dendiac added that Greece will expand its territorial waters south of the island of Crete in the Mediterranean Sea from 6 to 12 nautical miles on warmer days.
Greece claims that the waters are part of its continental shelf and has asked for the support of the EU, which has condemned Turkey’s illegal actions and warned of possible sanctions against Ankara.
Turkey, meanwhile, claims that Greece and other countries are taking away its rights to explore energy resources in the Mediterranean.
“It is no coincidence that those who want to exclude us from the Eastern Mediterranean are

Erdogan
in a message on the occasion of Victory Day on Sunday. Turkey marks 98 years since the decisive battle of Dumlupanar against Greek forces in the war for independence. “Turkey’s fight for independence and the future continues today,” Erdogan added. The Turkish president visited the mausoleum of Kemal Ataturk, who led Turkish troops in the fight for independence after World War I and created a modern Turkey, AP notes.
In recent weeks, both Turkish and Greek forces have organized naval exercises in areas between Cyprus and the Greek island of Crete. The confrontation erupted when Turkey sent a research ship, accompanied by warships, to search for gas and oil reserves.
In addition to Greece and Cyprus, France, Italy and the United Arab Emirates have recently carried out military exercises in the region. On Saturday, Turkey began a naval exercise until September 11 off its southern coast. (24 hours)
