With the Turkish regime insisting on offensive tactics against Greece and Cyprus, endangering peace and stability in Eastern mediterraneanIn the Greek Armed Forces there is absolutely no place for inaction and complacency.
Ankara does not hide its intentions to keep the tension high, waiting European and American decisions for possible sanctions. This is clearly demonstrated by launch of two more challenging NAVTEX for Navy exercises and indeed in two areas – “fire”, one near Rhodes and the other south of Crete. That’s obvious the Erdogan regime is in panic, without allies and with sanctions now seems inevitable, if of course the Germany and its “satellites” rise to critical circumstances.
No one can believe them anymore “Bluffs” of the “Sultan”, who to show his supposed good face withdrew it Oruc Reisof the Greek continental shelf. Turkey is now in an extremely difficult position and this makes it even more dangerous.
The Greek “Pentagon” is well aware of this and wants to prevent any aggressive action by Ankara and put an end to it in its infancy. Obviously not accidental at all meeting called last Monday (12.30) the Head of GEETHA, General Konstantinos Floros and the Chiefs of the Branch, Rear Admiral Stylianos Petrakis, Rear Admiral Georgios Blioumis, Lieutenant General Charalambos Lalousis, the Chiefs – Commanders of the Major Administrations, the Deputy Chiefs and the Chiefs of Staff also participated. Only by the composition of the meeting can we understand its criticality.
During the meeting the military leadership analyzed the situation in the eastern Mediterranean, the practices of Turkey, the dangers looming in the immediate future and the state of the means, weapon systems and manpower of the Armed Forces.
The military leadership recognized that due to the prolonged crisis with Turkey There is reasonable staff fatigue and media strain.. The Navy, in particular, has been on alert at sea since July. However, the Chief of Staff and the General Staff agreed and decided that the highest surveillance state should be maintained, so that the operational availability of the three Branches is maintained at the highest level.
In this context, General Konstantinos Floros ordered the immediate restoration of any problems and the return to full operational status all means and weapons systems with immediate response availability when and where necessary.
Erdogan’s insolvency does not allow any inaction, with the following days considered critical even for an event “Hot” episode. Who, for example, can block a new attempt by the Turkish fleet to leave the Aegean or the eastern Mediterranean, if the EU imposes sanctions and the angry sultan orders an escalation? Furthermore, who would rule out Turkey’s derailment, with even the departure of a drilling rig in the eastern Mediterranean, should German Europe again refuse to punish the Turkish regime? all scenarios were reexamined and reaction modes were redesigned.
It is obvious that despite the efforts to improve weapons and strengthen the three branches, which are being carried out with very rapid procedures, the military leadership wants to “protect” the country’s borders as best as possible and, at the same time, keep everyone under maximum surveillance. Even with the existing potential and with all the means and weapons they have, will continue to successfully fulfill the mission assigned to them 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
